I wanted to change the number of Sprints per release Release under an iteration in the VS Scrum template 1.0. The default after install was 6 sprints per release – for me this was a little too long and wanted to change it to be 3 sprints per release – even though I am a one man army I still think 3 weeks is enough to get reasonable working deliverables to a state ready for release.

To customise this within Visual Studio you need to go to:

• Team >> Team Project Settings >> Areas and Iterations >> Select iteration Tab and you can then change whatever you like.
