Community
CBT Activity at the Work Week
- [marcia] The CBT team is having 2 full days of meetings on Thursday and Friday: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Contribute/Meetup/Portland_Dec_2014/Schedule
- Their schedule looks like you would benefit more from participating fully over the two days since they are modeling it very similar to the way it was done at the last work week.
QA Champions
- Notes from last Friday's meeting: https://etherpad.mozilla.org/community-champions-20141114
Testdays
- The testday project team will be meeting next week to kick off a SWOT analysis cycle - this is a dependency for 2015 planning
QMO Re-design
- Rollout of new design to QMO staging and production: probably Thu Nov 20 from 10 AM to 12 PM
- Craig Cook and pragmatic working on final code changes today: https://github.com/mozilla/qmo-design/tree/master/QMO6
- Volunteers needed to help out with testing the rollout and promoting it on social media. (probably Nov 20 from 12 PM onwards)
- Staging website updated with changes from last Tiger Team meeting and latest content from live QMO as of Nov 11, 2014 http://qmo.pragmatictester.com/
- QMO Docs => MDN transition complete. Some MDN docs still need review. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/tag/needs%20QAteam%20review
Swag
- Marcia has stickers for distribution during the Portland work week:
- 450 stickers (size 2"x2") of the General QA Participation Badge design https://badges.mozilla.org/en-US/badges/badge/General-QA-Participation-Badge
- 450 stickers (size 2"x2") of the Firefox OS Badge design https://badges.mozilla.org/en-US/badges/badge/Firefox-OS-Badge
- The idea is to give out stickers to QA team leads in the various offices, so when we have QA events/bug bashes/meetups they can be given to participants.
