Last time I told Michelle that it'd be really nice to have some way of tracking the current question (as in, a personal notepad). I don't know if anyone read last month's logs, I talked about it starting 3:36PM [21:28] �19*� �19�michelleluna �(michellelu@moz-9B30C0BD.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) has joined #sumomeet [21:28] �22*� killer sets mode +a #sumomeet michelleluna [21:28] �22*� �26killer� gives channel operator status to�26 michelleluna [21:28] �31�<�satdav�>���30 r1cky, we are discussion some stuff relating to the forums the now some of the stuff is dev related [21:29] �18�<��24feer56�>�� Yes, I remember that Ziggy_Maes.

[21:31] �18�<��26rosana�>�� maybe if we put something more specific on an etherpad he can include that in his product plans [21:31] �31�<�satdav�>���30 true [21:31] �18�<��24feer56�>�� OKay. [21:31] �18�<��26rosana�>�� so how about creating an etherpad for that kind of feedback [21:31] �21��<�feer56�>���21 satdav: You want to do that? [21:31] �18�<��26rosana�>�� he could always look at it and you can constantly update it [21:32] �18�<��25madalina�>�� we can set it as an action item for Topal and we can follow up on that [21:32] �31�<�satdav�>���30 would a bug not be better assigned to topal [21:32] �31�<�satdav�>���30 then he can update it as soon as it happens [21:32] �18�<��26rosana�>�� we should keep in mind, that it's not possible to implement all feature requests, but I'm sure that the dev team and Topal are more than happy to have your feedback! [21:32] �18�<��24feer56�>�� rosana: Of course! [21:32] �31�<�satdav�>���30 rosana, r1cky is from the dev team [21:33] �18�<��25r1cky�>�� yeah but Topal is the product owner [21:33] �31�<�satdav�>���30 true [21:33] �18�<��25r1cky�>�� He prioritizes features and such [21:33] �19*� �19�matthewrbowker �(matthewrbo@AADAA470.9D9C3E79.3ED9AD7C.IP) has joined #sumomeet [21:33] �31�<�satdav�>���30 so whats the best way to give him feedback on r1cky [21:33] �31�<�satdav�>���30 Welcome to the meeting matthewrbowker [21:33] �18�<��25r1cky�>�� I think summarize proposals into forum posts [21:34] �18�<��24feer56�>�� That should be good once this meeting is all over.

[21:35] �18* �26matthewrbowker� waves to rosana [21:36] �18�<��26rosana�>�� that could be a good way of first having a "convesation" between contributors and being able to provide good requests to Topal [21:36] �31�<�satdav�>���30 https://etherpad.mozilla.org/sumodev-feature-requests [21:36] �31�<�satdav�>���30 their you guys go [21:36] �18�<��24feer56�>�� Thank you.

[22:22] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� I know the main live chat helpers do [22:22] �21��<�feer56�>���21 I'm back satdav. [22:22] �31�<�satdav�>���30 cool mate [22:22] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� I don't have time to help out much lately, but I just don't like forum support [22:22] �31�<�satdav�>���30 it would be good [22:22] �18�<��24feer56�>�� I do help out on live chat. [22:22] �31�<�satdav�>���30 for it to get back as i have had a lot of people emailing me about it [22:22] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� It could be improved, but most of the problems forum support has aren't problems on live chat [22:23] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� this is why i suggested a forum feature that works like facebook chat, that if you're on at the same time as the user you have a chat, and if you're not it shows up as messages back and forth [22:23] �31�<�satdav�>���30 true [22:23] �31�<�satdav�>���30 was speaking to some companys about it [22:23] �18�<��20rosana_�>�� Lucy: I think this is a good idea, and Topal mentioned it [22:23] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� thanks! [22:24] �31�<�satdav�>���30 and zopon what intergrates with the browser [22:24] �31�<�satdav�>���30 they can help mozilla out [22:24] �18�<��20rosana_�>�� but I think we need to wait until the dev team has time [22:24] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� I think live chat vs forums really comes down to how you like to manage your time, I guess the forum helpers like the time to research an issue then reply later [22:24] �31�<�satdav�>���30 rosana_, that is correct as far as i am conserned [22:24] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� but I much prefer helping someone start to finish, you see how many chats never get followed up on [22:24] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� err how many forum threads i mean [22:24] �18�<��26matthewrbowker�>�� Lucy: +1 [22:25] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� rosana_: for full disclosure, if you didn't already know, I was the original live chat lead [22:25] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� I have a *lot* of thoughts on the matter! [22:25] �31�<�satdav�>���30 Lucy, did you not start up livechat on sumo [22:26] �21��<�Lucy�>���21 satdav: yes, that's what I just meant [22:26] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� i was on the team before djst actually [22:26] �18�<��20rosana_�>�� Lucy: thanks I was aware that you have been a very active member, but wasn't aware that you started the live chat [22:27] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� rosana_: I'd be happy to speak candidly over email or private message sometime if you'd ever find that helpful [22:27] �18�<��20rosana_�>�� Lucy: that would be great [22:27] �31�<�satdav�>���30 Lucy, so was it you who started up sumo then [22:28] �21��<�Lucy�>���21 satdav: no, it was a bit of a joint project [22:28] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� choffman and samsidler were working on it at the same time that mconnor was planning web based support in browser [22:28] �31�<�satdav�>���30 oh so thats a long time now [22:28] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� jtbatson was the original manager and he brought on me, cilias and jason barnabe [22:28] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� to run each of the areas [22:28] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� then djst was hired to be team lead [22:29] �31�<�satdav�>���30 is that all for livechat [22:29] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� more detail can wait for later don't want to hold up the meeting!

[22:35] �31�<�satdav�>���30 OK [22:35] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� (this is what I mean by putting more specific info out there, I wasn't going to stop by but the topics are engaging me!) [22:36] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� i think a lot of focus is put onto the dev side of things, but I think a lot more should depend on processes, how people work together [22:36] �18�<��20rosana_�>�� ok, let's try to find a better time and organize better the agenda of this meeting for the next time :) [22:36] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� not everyone has unlimited dev resources but they ahve still been successful [22:36] �31�<�satdav�>���30 true [22:36] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� IRC support worked out very well, though wouldn't scale [22:37] �21��<�Lucy�>���21 Live chat recruited a lot of really great helpers, like Cww and zzxc, and you satdav [22:37] �18�<��20rosana_�>�� yes I know [22:37] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� I think the fact that people were interacting with eachother right away was a big deal [22:37] �18�<��20rosana_�>�� Lucy: true [22:37] �31�<�satdav�>���30 true lucy [22:38] �18�<��20rosana_�>�� as I understood Topal he's trying to build that into the forums [22:38] �18�<��20rosana_�>�� it'S just going to take time [22:38] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� of course, though there are 2 perspectives, how to build wha tyou need, and how to use what you have to do what you need [22:38] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� I think there's too much focus on the first one [22:38] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� well no, there isn't too much, because thats important [22:39] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� I think it's just at the cost of the second sometimes [22:39] �18�<��20rosana_�>�� I get you point Lucy [22:39] �18�<��20rosana_�>�� and how can we make the best of the actual situation? [22:39] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� right. I think if we have some better workflow processes in place we could simulate a lot of it in the meantime [22:40] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� like sending a private message to a new helper to welcome them, rather than just adding to a thread they already helped [22:40] �18�<��20rosana_�>�� exactly Lucy, in the long run that's the way to go [22:40] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� and that's a process issue, not a software issue [22:40] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� so stuff like that [22:41] �18�<��20rosana_�>�� I think we could talk on a separate meeting about that [22:41] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� sure [22:41] �18�<��20rosana_�>�� it's very important [22:42] �18�<��20rosana_�>�� I don't want to push, but I need to get going [22:42] �31�<�satdav�>���30 I have removed the mobile bit as that would be better at a dev meeting rather than here [22:42] �31�<�satdav�>���30 next up What would you like the community managers to help you with [22:42] �18�<��20rosana_�>�� yeay [22:42] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� rosana_: i agree, they're big topics [22:43] �18�<��29Lucy�>�� could even benefit from a work weekend with the main contributors [22:43] �18�<��20rosana_�>�� any special wishes from your side guys? [22:43] �18�<��20rosana_�>�� Lucy: good idea! let's think about it :) [22:44] �18�<��20rosana_�>�� Madalina and I are new here, but we're going to try to make your lifes easier [22:44] �18�<��25madalina�>�� yes guys, now it's time to ask [22:44] �31�<�satdav�>���30 you are doing good rosana_ considering your new [22:44] �18�<��20rosana_�>�� so if there'S anything you think we could help you with, we're there [22:44] �19*� �19�Sirius �(sirius@moz-664BADE7.jetstream.xtra.co.nz) has joined #sumomeet [22:45] �31�<�satdav�>���30 rosana_, and madalina did michelle tell you about the project i am involved in [22:45] �18�<��25madalina�>�� which one?
