This is only true if one doesn't think of documents as part of the
product. If they are, then you as a writer *are* a product developer.

After a very "painful" experience working with a team of developers who are new to Agile and are using Agile based on how they "think" they should use Agile and assuming how a writer fits in the picture. I was prompted to research what my role as a writer was in the Agile Process. I learned that, officially, there is no "place" for writers in the Agile process because Agile was designed for developers, not writers.
