Scrum of scrums

To keep Wikimedia Engineering teams abreast of one another, we have a weekly scrum of scrums (SoS) meeting where representatives from each department exchange updates. The meeting is currently held on Wednesdays at 17:35 UTC (10:35 Pacific), and is facilitated by a rotating chair.

Resources

 * Scrum of scrums etherpad
 * Scrum of scrums/Template

Facilitator responsibilities

 * Wiki
 * Within 24 hours after the weekly Scrum of Scrums meeting on Wednesdays, copy this week’s content from the etherpad to subpage of this page. Example: Scrum of scrums/2019-03-20.
 * Create the page with source editor. That will remove all formatting. (If you have New wikitext mode enabled in Special:Preferences, if you paste as wikitext via Ctrl or Cmd from the etherpad it will double every new line. Instead, do paste-as-plaintext via Ctrl or Cmd.)
 * Fix formatting errors (mostly whitespace) and typos.
 * Make sure that all blocking/blocked tasks are in both teams. (If team A is blocked by team B with task T, the task should be in blocked section of team A and blocking section of team B.)
 * Delete empty sections (teams with no updates, blocking/blocked/updates with no content).
 * Etherpad
 * Copy source of Scrum of scrums/Template page to the etherpad.
 * E-mail
 * To: wikitech-l.
 * Subject: . Example:
 * Body:
 * URL of the wiki page.
 * Source of the wiki page.
 * Example: [Wikitech-l] Scrum of scrums/2019-05-01
 * Check wikitech-l about once a week to see if the email sparked any questions.
