This artifact is a list of known and open risks to the project, sorted in order of importance and associated with specific mitigation or contingency actions.
This list identifies, in decreasing order of priority, all the risks associated to a project. It serves as a focal point for project
activities and is the basis around which iterations are organized.
This list should capture the critical and serious risks. If you find this list extending beyond 20, carefully consider
whether they are really serious risks. Tracking more than 20 risks is an onerous task.

Option: list of risks captured in the project plan
In this approach you put the overall risk list in the project plan. The iteration plan will contain only the tasks you
will be doing during the iteration to mitigate the risks. This will ensure that the iteration plan contains only
iteration information. The project plan has to be revisited constantly as you update risks.
