Action items

Maja says more teatime!

[all QA] Use the goals page on the wiki to document your community goals.

[Stephen? Whoever owns the invite] Please update the invite with pointers to agenda and etherpad.

notes

Volunteers to Whistler: talk to Marcia! We've only got two people on the list. List is in the link on the agenda.

[marcia] Community Goals for Q2: Have we done these? What are they? Do people besides Marcia have them? It may be challenging to meet overall community goals if we don't have many individual employees helping out.

[marcia, KaiRo] Softvision included in community efforts? Not explicitly; they are doing some bug triage and other things which may not be connected to community. Florin has been in touch with Marcia. Co-ordination still unclear.

[marcia] Training for community bug triage? How would we do this?

[mbrandt] What goals can we set to increase visibility for community training and other community tasks? For that matter, how can we see what the smaller QA groups are doing with community? WebQA is still working through Q2 goals; we want community to be a part of those. Community (templated) test plans are a priority.

[marcia] Community Champions-type discussion can be a half-hour adjunct to this meeting. Kairo and AaronMT concur.

[KaiRo] More of a push for quality is needed -- measurable metrics are going the wrong way, especially on Firefox Desktop.

[mbrandt] How would another half hour on community topics differ from what is already going on in this meeting? [marcia] Specific logistical details relating to individual events, as opposed to general status. Smaller initiatives that need specific details (contribute page, etc.)

[mbrandt] Consolidated QA voice is a big win. Let's discuss how we can make that happen.

[marcia] BuddyUp-type program around QA? [VP7] +1 for such Programs. There are Community Space which can be used. In India there is one.

[maja] Status updates are important! [KaiRo, mbrandt, justin +3] We need a place to do this, even if it's just every two weeks.

[mbrandt] Challenge: what can we do as a group in Whistler? Card games, hikes? Coding? Doc sprints? Let's use this time to our advantage. Brainstorming about how we want to use the rest of the year.

[mbrandt] Another challenge: Anticipate some chaos in Whistler. Don't let that deter us from doing good work together.

[KaiRo] Things will be closer together in Whistler than in Portland; that may help.


I will be helpful if the etherpad is followed in some format https://etherpad.mozilla.org/ammo-community-041415

[Syd] Please update the invite to include agenda and etherpad. (copied to action items.)
