This work presents Catrobat, a FLOSS project established at Graz University of Technology, and how it introduced agile product owners. Product owners communicate the product vision, provide a general direction, decide about features, and prioritize requirements that are implemented by the community, i.e., they are ultimately responsible for the product. This agile approach is intended to ensure a certain outcome, such as business objectives, but also to react to the needs of community members and users on a short-term basis. This paper presents how therefore this role has been defined and the processes have been adapted. %G English %Z TC 2 %Z WG 2.13 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-02305707/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-02305707/file/484969_1_En_4_Chapter.pdf %L hal-02305707 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-02305707 %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-AICT %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-WG %~ IFIP-OSS %~ IFIP-TC2 %~ IFIP-WG2-13 %~ IFIP-AICT-556
