1.	One of the Scrum Teams chooses to have a Development Team member also playing the role of Scrum Master. Is this the right practice?
Answer» In some PROJECTS, a development team member ACTS as a scrum master as there is no rule set up officially that a scrum master cannot be a developer. Definitely, it is hard to perform 2 roles at one time, however, it is definitely possible. A development team member playing the scrum master role depends on the team, team members skills and INTERNAL CHOICE of manager or team. Ultimately, everything is possible in agile-scrum projects.
