@parkan @jimpick @flyingzumwalt @andreforsousa @marcooliveira can I get your EoQ scores here?

[pgte]

@jimpick @parkan @satazor @marcooliveira @andreforsousa can I get your 2018 Q4 retrospective here?

[pgte]

Next quarter I think, broadly, we should focus on:

• DX:
  • start defining the peer-base types and interfaces
  • continue working towards a stable and performant peer-base
  • document peer-base architecture
  • peer-base website, docs
  • public infrastructure: ensure quality, measure performance
• Community
  • Produce articles and videos
  • Envolve community more (Textile, others...)
• Identity
  • Kickstart the development of the Identity Manager

what do you think @parkan @jimpick @andreforsousa @marcooliveira @satazor ?

[satazor]

I will try to fill these ASAP, currently in transit which doesn't help.

I can't attend this one, conflicts with previous appointment. Will try to provide my feedback meanwhile.

adding @aschmahmann (sorry I missed you, copy-pasta error)

[satazor]

@pgte I've filled the scorings and I will do the retro tomorrow as today I'm completely overwhelmed.

Regarding the focus of the next quarter, they look right, but we will discuss in a few hours.

[pgte]

Open planning brainstorm and preliminary OKRs being done here.

[pgte]

Estimate of my available time in 2019Q1 (inspired by this):

• 13 weeks in the quarter - 65 days (assuming 5 day work week)
• Take out the first 2 days (NYE and Jan 1) - 63
• 10 days of Vacation + Hack Weeks + conferencing, etc. Then you have left 53 days.
• 53 days in a 8 hour work day is 424 hours
• 60% of that is 254.4 hours

[pgte]

@marcooliveira @parkan @aschmahmann @andreforsousa Thanks for the retrospective!
We're just missing @satazor @jimpick right now.

[marcooliveira]

Finally got around to filling my retrospective, scores already done previously.

[satazor]

Sorry @pgte, I will take care of that tomorrow morning.

[pgte]

I've tentatively assigned priorities and owners to the KRs in the KR doc. I've tagged possible owners on this doc to confirm it.

[satazor]

@pgte just finished my retro

Hellloooo helloo DDC WG!

I'll be your concierge for finalizing your OKRs for Q1 2019! Please read the fantastic tutorial that @momack2 prepared on how you can do a simple Roadmap timeline exercise with your team to identify and reach consensus in which are the most important priorities, you can find the instructions at ipfs/roadmap#17

I'm available to answer all your questions, take part on the timeline exercise and review your iterations.

[momack2]

Hi DDC working group! I've helped move your draft OKRs into the planning OKR sheet - can you all please review and make sure these are still the OKRs you plan to commit to for the quarter? You have a lot in the peerbase bucket - so if there are any you know you can't achieve, I'd suggest moving them to the "Deferred until Q2" section beneath line 58 as we've done on a few other teams. We're aiming to get these finalized ASAP - so please go ahead and merge this PR once we have 👍s.

@jimpick @satazor @marcooliveira @aschmahmann @andreforsousa @parkan

[pgte]

Given the IPFS de-scoping on the way, I think that the DDC roadmap and OKRs no longer make sense, and so it's my opinion is that we shouldn't spend any more cycles discussing these.
