| Task breakdown of a user story is done at iteration planning by the whole team. Since all team members are present, |
| they should have a fairly good understanding of the tasks. If not, the team is there to help them. |

| <p> |
| The person giving the estimate can use his personal experience to give an estimate based on a similar task he has done |
| before. If the experience is not there, other team members can help by providing their input based on their own |
| experience. Very often, pairs will form for specific tasks at this stage. The most important aspect to keep in mind is |
| that the person responsible for the task is the one giving the estimate. |
