Today’s goals

• Schedule daily standups (USA and AUS)

• Schedule postmortem, stakeholder meeting, prioritization meeting for next Thursday

  • It would be nice to have everyone present for the same meeting for this, but we’d have to fight time zones to do it.

    • MT, JC, JE, ZB - Availability to do one consolidated “everyone” version of these as late as 7 PM Eastern/6 Central/4 Pacific every other week?

    • JM - Ability to do a meeting 1-3 hours earlier every other week?

• Zenhub account creation/intro

• Review Proposed procedures (below)

• Pick tickets

Proposed procedures

Meetings

• Daily standups, split by time zones:

  • MT + JW + JC + JE ( + LW if possible)

  • JM + LW + JW ( + JE if possible)

• Kickoff meetings every other Mon (Tues AUS, x2 for time zones as above)

• Stakeholder meetings (discuss how many/how frequently to have these to get relevant audience, eg. shirts lab members)

• Postmortem + Prioritization meeting every other Thursday (Fri AUS) (hopefully consolidated into a single meeting)

Ticket lifecycle:

• Adding tickets to New Items - Anyone adds at any time

• Triaging “New Items” into Iceboxes/Backlogs/Current iteration - Only happens in prioritization meeting

  • Exception: Leads and PM can move “New Items” tickets to current iteration or backlog mid-sprint, but MUST make a brief post on some slack channel that we will make justifying the action. These posts will all be added to postmortem agenda, so if folks think it was inappropriate or process needs to be changed, they will be discussed.

• Moving tickets into Current Iteration - Only happens during Iteration Planning

• Once selected for Current Iteration, tickets are only moved between columns during standups/synchronous meetings
