Thank yoi for sharing! I like the "our code" feeling.

I also wonder if you really measured velocity and saw it's higher? I imagined, based on other people opinions mostly, that velocity should drop. If you managed to speed up, it deserves a publication!

Yeah, I'll try write. :)
The count base where we could notice the velocity increase was points delivered of features vs bugs card in some short cycles.

It was not so evident in the first ~2 months about after that we could compare the numbers. It's a mindset change of the team but I truly believe worth it.

I have a recent really good example where I had pair with a team from another squad in a feature and the solution came up with an idea that I put on the desk and his as well. When we shared the solution with the team in a stand-up meeting that team was really surprised with the "out of box" solution.
