Notes

Guidance Document for CCMWG

  • Would like to have it completed by week of September 21st

Review action items from last week

  • @Chris Colvard (Deactivated) - Added to github-default-branch page, most notes in bold and end of checklist

  • @Kate Lynch - still needs to do walk through with Esme's script

  • Test renaming repos:

    • Jeremy says Lynette poked at a github.io repo (does Lynette have any notes?)

    • Jeremy deferred renaming waiting for github discussion

    • Kate deferred as well

  • Local checkout script: @Jeremy Friesen has poked at this with a ruby script

  • Dev Congress proposal - Not done yet

  • Spreadsheet to help with migration of labs - Not done yet; @Collin Brittle will work on this today

Github announcement discussion

  • github covering all of our use cases? Maybe?  What about updating wiki pages, devops work tools, etc.

  • This WG should wait until end of year and re-form then keeping an eye on GH until then?

  • All in agreement that waiting for GH support best.

  • Need to watch the scope of GH support and prepare tools/instructions for cases not covered - wiki pages, our docucumentation (like CONTRIBUTING.md)

  • Why is waiting a good idea?

    • Reduced cognitive load

    • Less disruptive technically

    • GH is helping solve the problem and can help support if arise issues

    • Mindful of our resources

  • Need to decide and writeup about how we're keeping a watch on things and how we're going to ramp back up

  • Goal: pass off doc to CCMWG and let them implement it

  • Action item: draft rampup doc including why we're pausing and how we're going to complete the work (@Jeremy Friesen )

  • Action item: outline document for the CCMWG (@Kate Lynch )
