Notes
Matters arising
-
Ola modify QA: ticket creation modified (error & comment sent)
- trac doesn't like the HTML from web tickets
- done for everywhere.
-
django example:
- Carlos committed the latest changes
- Carlos & Ola will talk next week.
-
Bugs -> Tasks
- Chris tested on agilo-test
- Doesn't quite work
-
agilo automatic owner assignment (components don't have owners)
- Josh: Components are hard to use in agilo. Perhaps reduce?
- Chris: can clean up
- Also re-enabling some of the fields
- NB: referenced_by for tasks causes cycle (boom)
- ticket created for image id for original files
- original files discussion: later in this iteration
- jerome: visiting on the 19th/20th.
- phpbb upgraded: mostly working. jabber-notifications next week
- BVMA: Jason sent to Donald who sent also
- preliminary program written but not out. (need to talk to Spencer)
- Donald contacted Josh about anonymization (no word back)
- Andrew added item about FLIM notes ("contact Andrew")
-
NDIM: Jean-Marie and Donald are thinking about it
- have gotten ourselves into a place where terms could be misintrpreted
- group-name: solved
-
FAQ: a few are open. @Andrew will follow them up for final website changes
- In some cases, create place holder page, add ticket with TODO
- Could be large amounts of work for several people
- First answer, and then we organize them (other pages)
-
Ola modify QA: ticket creation modified (error & comment sent)
FS
- plan is to have the basics ready to use bioformats on the fly in sprint 6
- test performance once all the pieces are hooked together
- various other things (scripts, etc.) would benefit from knowing where we stand on FS
Generating Sprint 5
-
Best practice: Its not a good idea to attach a story to a sprint because this makes it hard to move later.
- ...unless you know that the story will get closed.
- Jason: there will be some histology discussions going on during the iteration
-
Moving tickets in/out before planning
- Andrew: Moving things out of the sprint doesn't seem look like a good idea (graph changes)
- Graph doesn't now show that there was a big blip
- Best practice: try to not put new stories/tasks into the current sprint
- Best practice: DON'T move tasks out of the OLD iteration before the meeting (do it together)
- Best practice: DO move tasks into the the NEW iteration before the meeting
- Best practice: First thing in planning meeting, look at old whiteboard
- Best practice: For testing, create a testing "task" - "X Demo (Sprint X)"
- Best practice: please create a ticket for your commits (if its not already linked to a ticket)
- Best practice: documentation should go in slice2html and we point people there
- Best practice: if you need something from someone, CC them on the ticket
- Best practice: if the weekly whiteboard review would move your open ticket to 'done', do it beforehand.
-
Best practice: Its not a good idea to attach a story to a sprint because this makes it hard to move later.
