Hi, today is the day where we should have the IRC mneeting...<br />
<br />
... however, it is too late to make a call today. Let's have it next<br />
Tuesday?<br />
<br />
Some thoughts:<br />
<br />
- As maemo.org goes community-driven, the role of the product owner<br />
should also be filled by community members. I propose that the council<br />
takes that role next week. I can assist if needed, but there is no need<br />
for me to keep driving the meetings.<br />
<br />
- There is an increasing detachment between the tasks and bugs committed<br />
and the real work and discussion happening. Is this ok, not ok? The<br />
product owner should decide. :)<br />
<br />
- Reporting is still weak and it is really not easy to know what is the<br />
real status of most of the tasks committed. This is of course ok for<br />
volunteers but (frankly) I think this is a problem for those getting<br />
paid - myself included. Tero (equivalent to scrum master?) is the<br />
project manager responsible of making good use of the money Nokia pays<br />
for maemo.org tasks. Then again, if the council and Tero are happy, I<br />
have no reasons being unhappy.<br />
<br />
- There are still 100 Days tasks open. No information about the delays.<br />
<br />
- It would be good to check regularly the 2010 agenda in the search of<br />
new tasks to propose and commit. There is plenty of work to do, many<br />
dependencies and (crazy as it sounds) 2010 is not that far far.<br />
