Discussions

  • Acknowledgements
    • Who do you want to recognize within our team?
      • William Q.
      • Christie and Jennie for awesome Wiki-ness
      • Pierros and Christie for standups work
      • David, Sean, Jennie for Get Involved work
    • Who do you want to recognize outside of our team with a community building superstar badge
  • Debrief and take-aways of Unconscious Bias training
    • attendees: Larissa, Michelle, Sean
    • value in getting global teems to work together, multicultural understandings
    • shows us how we process information about other people so we can be more aware of what is influencing our decisions/opinions
    • this was beta 2 of the workshop: too much material in time span,  take-aways were not solid enough
    • Are there any written notes? - don't think so, just a physical workbook

  • Tiger Team discussions
    • Thoughts or questions around new goal, objectives and 3-pronged approach (Tiger Team, actions, dialogue) detailed at:
    • Next steps with challenges
      • Mary Ellen picking 3-5 challenges later today to take to RemoCamp this weekend.  The short-list of challenge ideas she is considering is at the bottom of this pad:
      • Going through these challenge ideas with her helped me understand the scope of the challenge idea -- the focus is on short-term contribution opportunities that would benefit from increased attention and from rallying the project behind it.
        • So there is a lot we're doing that doesn't fall into that:
          • Location services didn't fit here because they don't have a need to fix -- the experimenting we did in Q2 showed the right model and now we need to scale that up.  There is no 'challenge' here in the way that there is a challenge with increasing desktop marketshare where the answer of how to do that isn't clear.
          • The Open Standard Initiative didn't fit here because Anthony's need is relatively small.  He is asking for 20 beta bloggers, but rallying the whole project around this would bring him more contributors than he needs right now.

  • Team dynamics
  • Reorg affects on partnerships
    • do recent reorgs affect our partnerships? how?

  • Webdev community building around community tools? (need to talk about this as a group)
    • mozilians
    • badges
    • reps
    • other?
    • in terms of who drives these projects, what is the line between systems & data and other areas of CBT?
