Talk:Wikimedia Engineering/2015-16 Q1 Goals

Splitting by quarters?
Since we're shifting the focus from yearly to quarterly rhythm (with quarterly team goals, quarterly reviews, quarterly individual goals), do we really need to group all the quarterly engineering goals into one giant page? We could have one page per quarter; the pages would be shorter, easier to read, and we could take that that opportunity to get rid of one level of tables.

If it makes any difference, I'm volunteering to do the spit if needed :) Guillaume (WMF) (talk) 15:47, 19 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Pinging DGarry, Trevor Parscal, Greg, GWicke, Mark Bergsma, Ori Livneh, Dario, ARipstra, CSteipp. Any objections to the above? Guillaume (WMF) (talk) 16:04, 19 June 2015 (UTC)
 * I don't feel strongly either way (and the format may change again in the future) but I personally like seeing the entire set of goals for an entire year for each team.--Dario (WMF) (talk) 19:21, 19 June 2015 (UTC)
 * As long as we can get to the current quarters goals from one consistent place, I think breaking them out by quarter will make them easier to read. CSteipp (WMF) (talk) 16:47, 23 June 2015 (UTC)


 * ✅; the only department with anything beyond Q1 was RelEng, who are now lonely over on Wikimedia Engineering/2015-16 Q2 Goals. Jdforrester (WMF) (talk) 23:47, 23 June 2015 (UTC)

Community Tech
Is it really that case that this team has no goals and no-one setting goals? Does it not already have an incubator and two staff -- what are they doing? Exactly what does In progress mean here? Rogol Domedonfors (talk) 20:54, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

Top priorities
Will there be top priorities in this quarter? --Nemo 12:04, 5 July 2015 (UTC)

Roadmap
Are the "goals" pages affected by [Wikitech-l] The end of the Roadmap Phabricator project? --Nemo 12:04, 5 July 2015 (UTC)


 * No. Documentation does not drive reality. Jdforrester (WMF) (talk) 15:25, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
