Agenda

2016 planning

(Non-verbal update from laura) This week some of you have been pulled in to describing your various parts of Go Faster for 2016 planning. In this sprint we list out our planned deliverables, assumptions, and risks for the first half of next year. I'll be in touch over email. Note: in communications, we are bucketed under "Modernize Firefox Engineering" along with e.g. de-xulinization. Ping me with any questions. The deadline for this sprint is Thursday, yes, this Thursday, as we must present to leadership at 8.30 Friday. It's going to be like this every week between now and Orlando.
