Retro

How did last week go? What sucked? What was awesome?

Jay

  • Engagement work week made it hard to focus on a lot of my MDN related tasks.
    • However, having the team in town did help discuss where we're at and get them more involved in our work.
  • Started on some copy work with Matej, but didn't get too far. I need to push him a bit to see if he can at least get us some copy to work with.
  • Design stalled with Chowse on PTO and Matt just wrapping up Dev Derby. Will pick up the pace this week.
  • Wrapping my head around how we'll mange 2 week dev cycles. Given our track record and current processes, it will take a few cycles to sort out the kinks.

John

Today is my first day at Mozilla. Aside from packing, I spent last week reading through some Kuma documentation to prepare for today.

Les

  • Keen:
    • Got South migrations working for Demos app
      • So far, so good.
      • More powerful than SQL migrations
    • Migrating from demo studio tagging to Kitsune/Kuma tagging app
    • New tagging app should help bug 657779 for tagging demos with Dev Derby runs
  • So-so:
    • Holding pattern on affiliate buttons
    • Not entirely MDN-focused yet, but getting better

Luke

Awesome:

  • got to dig into DEMO STUDIO code adding 'censored' field and enabling users to 'hide' their own demos
  • the dev derby design looks great!

Sucks:

  • did everything stop on Monday & Tuesday? why?
  • design work needs to happen earlier so we have great designs but still have 2 weeks for dev, qa, sec, loc
    • MDN home & header, demo studio, and profile designs need to be done by May 31 to release by June 14
  • MindTouch, nothing new

Chowse

Craig

  • See the works in progress
  • Good progress on the kuma wiki templates.
  • Still need to sort out the behavior with the floating header and toolbar, and I have no idea how the section editing can work (will take some fancy scripting with CKE, methinks)

Raymond

  • Expand selenium test suite for MDN

Triage

http://mzl.la/j6LLCv Any triage bugs bugs that need mentioning?

Planning

What do we do this week? Do we need to change objectives?

Jay

  • Decide our upgrade path for MindTouch with 0.9.5 around the corner and 0.9.6 quickly following.
  • Sync up on design for Demo Studio with Matt and MDN home with Chowse
  • Follow-up with Craig on progress with Promote MDN and Dev Derby pages, and Kuma editor work; get him ready for MDN home and Demo Studio.
  • Get John up to speed on things; introduce him to the team
  • Evaluate 0.9.6 and 0.9.7 plans; try to figure out the best way to get them out the door with the features we want/need in 2 week cycles.

John

For now:

  • As Jay mentioned in IRC, there is much to digest from our meeting earlier today. I hope to read through my notes and refine them to the point that I have a fairly thorough understanding of what will be on my plate this summer.

Later this week:

  • [To be detailed after the above is complete.]

Les

  • Wrap up tagging migration groundwork for Dev Derby backend support
  • Wrap up affiliate buttons?

Luke

  • stop freaking out about week-long qa, security, and localization reviews before launches ;)
  • upgrade django to 1.2.5 for security fixes bug 637525
  • upgrade stage9 to MindTouch 10
    • must not disrupt dev derby qa
  • talk to Les about mdn->kuma user migration

Chowse

Craig

  • Finishing kuma templates
    • Tagging? Files? The files gallery is a Deki thing that we may be able to lose, but I know Sheppy will want tags.
  • Progressing on Promote banner page
  • Starting on Dev Derby

Raymond

MDN 0.9.6
