=Milestones=

Milestone 1: Getting agreement on the definition

 * Send out the email and track level of engagement.
 * GG: My teams are discussing it.
 * JA: VE is. KS: rank and file of Discovery not engaging but Annual Plan authors are fine with it.
 * DS: Some engagement.
 * MB: not sure about Mobile teams.


 * Who's sending the email? Joel or Kevin.  There isn't a single TPG point of contact for this.  The draft circulated in email isn't final; Kevin needs to finalize and phrase in his language.
 * GG: Uncomfortable with the language about us coming if asked - would need more briefing before being able to represent this issue in discussion (but happy to do it if called upon)
 * Wes: available to come as needed.


 * KS: TPG should have a single owner for this. +1
 * KS happy to co-pilot.


 * KS: And we should talk to Lila to understand how it will be used. +1
 * Wes: and Jaime, can speak to it in terms of annual planning.
 * Let's meet with Jaime and Lila to sync up; Joel, Kevin, and Wes. KL happy to join. David.  Amy?  Wes: don't think we need Amy.
 * Agenda:
 * Brief on implementation to date (experiment last year, pilot efforts, Annual Planning prep).
 * Trying to get them to engage in talk pages.
 * Level-setting on the definition.
 * Get Jaime's and Lila's take on how the data will be used.
 * KS: hearing some uncertainty about going forward

Milestone 2:

 * JA: Burnup measurement efforts are already giving us some notion about how to implement
 * Teams don't want to track by tagging each task, but we are finding better ways
 * VE is actively piloting tracking work by Milestone, and testing whether or not the Milestones can be assigned cleanly to Core or Strategic
 * Other teams may experiment with that too.
