My Sprint starts on Tuesday, but this sometimes changed, so let's make this a variable: My company has sprints two weeks long that we can calculate from
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defvar sprint-starting-day 2 "The day of the week the sprint begins, where 0 is Sunday.")
#+end_src
We seem to never start our Sprints correctly, and we seem to like offsets:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
;; CHANGEME Each year as this never matches:
(defvar sprint-offset-value 1 "The number of the first sprint.")
#+end_src
We label our sprint based on the week number that it starts. Note that on a Monday, I want to consider that we are still numbering from last week.

My company has sprints two weeks long, we could be see that on even week numbers, the /sprint/ is actually the previous week's number.
This year, my PM decided to start the sprints sequentially starting with 11, so Ive decided to follow my own naming convention for my filenames.
