Wikimedia Apps/imported/Retrospective-May 1 2014

= Worked well =
 * beta/alpha releases went out a lot!
 * Android alpha one almost every day!
 * Figured out the Android alpha install people were having (yay Howie!)
 * Fanatic testers have discovered the Wikipedia app! (Liangent in particular)
 * iOS testflight releases
 * Faster iteration on Android
 * Addition of *ana as PMs! +1
 * Good PM interaction
 * Got icons :D
 * wikifont! (iOS only!)
 * Dmitry onboarding ;) +1
 * Getting up to speed with dev tools and Gerrit
 * Getting to actually make product decisions is fun
 * EventLogging design mostly sorted out, lots of back and forth with Analytics (android only!)
 * Team being slightly out of sync

= Worked poorly =
 * Communication / Interaction with Design (+) [Maryana]
 * Somebody stole our Kenan
 * Data migration not quite done, balance of complexity turned out to be simpler on the extraction and harder on the import than was expected
 * We should probably whittle Saved Pages down a bit. Me and dbrant have started on patches. +++ [Yuvi]
 * Alpha releases for some people didn't work (Howie discovered the fix)
 * document the code better :D+

= Confuses Us =
 * How often should I be signing off on things?
 * Release timeline. Beginning of sprint we mentioned android to beta at end of sprint and then no mention after ++ [Maryana]
 * How easy is it to push out test builds? Can we do it more often without dev velocity taking a hit? (note is different on Android and iOS)
 * Are iOS & Android siloed? If a bug is reported on Android, does somebody check to see if it's happening on iOS & vice versa?+
 * experiment with bug-report built in feature on ios [mhurd]
 * Not enough comments and discussion on the design trello board+++ [team]
