In my view, the purpose of the iteration planning is for the team to arrive at a commitment to some set of functionality that they feel reasonably confident they can complete in the coming iteration. The purpose is not to identify tasks. The purpose is not to estimate the number of hours for each of those tasks. The purpose is to figure out how many and which product backlog items they can commit to delivering in the coming iteration.
