Previous Action Items

What are we doing that we should keep doing?


 * Launch process/communication seems to be working! We're catching things before launch, and then fixing things quickly after. Good communication seems to be helping, both on tickets and in chat.


 * +1


 * @mentions are good, plus chat pings, esp with time zones


 * We just rolled another thing out right after a huge release like it was nbd ^_^


 * celebrate?


 * Talking to each other, should probably do that more


 * Adding teammates who help prod team communications

What are we doing that we should stop doing?











What aren't we doing that we should we start doing?


 * the main workboard/milestones could do with more regular cleanup I think - lots of things in QA and Verify on Production


 * Which? Current Work


 * There is reason for this (I left it that way on purpose)


 * and the purpose is? we will talk about that when we get to this item ^_^


 * Breaking tix into stuff to do and stuff to test?


 * Go back to meet for its new Brady Bunch video feature?


 * Even more better attention to who is responsible for (manual) testing, and when?


 * Making sure we've said who we are in the etherpad so we know who wrote what :P
