Wikimedia Apps/imported/Retrospective-July 24 2014
Appearance
Worked Well
[edit]- Late mad scramble to wrangle iOS app dangling bits
- Splitting giant stories into smaller work pieces
- using epics
- Android releases are almost non-events now
- Android production release!
- Engineers being excited about what comes next
- Design Review + 1
- Dan's data analysis
- edit workflow data
- account registrations data
- how many people saved pages and the amount
- which workflow buttons they tap
- Abbey's gorilla testing of the app
- Dan to speak to Abbey about what her plans are for Wikimania testing
- Android having bandwidth to take on more stories (Design feels less guilty)
- Getting a new scrummaster. Welcome Kristen!
- Getting more of Tomasz with his Director hat on
- Yuvi offloading more and more things :)
- iOS app submission!
Worked Poorly
[edit]- Keeping cards in line with our quarterly goals +1
- Prioritization feels a little hit or miss
- Automated building of Android package (for release/beta)+
Confuses Us
[edit]- Commitment to Page Styling vs increasing active editors +1+1+1+1++1 [DAN] with help Vibha & engineers
- Story Point Split between IOS and Android
- Unclear what schedule translation updates are happening at, and we only have yuvi with direct access in the system. Do we need more folks with access, or just a clearer schedule with Siebrand? ++1 (Yuvi will transition this to another team member (Siebrand wants only one person to have access in the team), volunteers welcome) [Bernd] volunteers.
- Vibha Bugging Engineers - Need to ad hoc chat during the week, not sure if Im bothering you.
- Design/engineering decisions/work happening without Dan's input
- How we're going to handle further app updates, since a few of them are already in the works
- Monte's chair :-))
- Apps @ Wikimania [Tomasz]
- Split up for story points that dont affect UX (Different from Mobile Web)
- How are we handling community feedback - are we going to use a wiki?
- A mediawiki page describing the app [DAN]++++
- Constructive feedback
Previous
[edit]- Maybe we should have a data workshop for designers and products. [Dan] to speak to Maryana, since she'd be ideal would be probably be ideal for this. Monthly data meeting.
