What’s this? :thinking: This topic is for brainstorming ways to improve the planning, collaboration, and reporting of Core Contributor work. Background :open_book: As Core Contributors, we’re all working towards the same goal: to further the development and adoption of the Open edX platform . Howeve…

[image] ali_hugo: Do you create this sheet from a csv downloaded from Listaflow? I’d like to take a look at the sheet’s default formatting to see how much work would be involved in making it pretty. :nail_care:t2: Hey @ali_hugo ! Yes I download a CSV from Listaflow (latest sample attached) 20…

[image] ali_hugo: Can CC’s pick any task in the backlog column and work on it? @ali_hugo All time spent on tickets on the openedx org count as core contributor time yes, although before working on one I would recommend asking about it on the ticket, and confirming that 1) the work would pass …

@Dean Great! Thanks for the additional info. I’m busy working on a survey that I’ll send out to all Core Contributors asking which of the ideas discussed in this thread are worth pursuing. You’ll receive a notification when it’s ready. From there, we can decide which improvements to prioritise. […

@ali_hugo Another aspect worth considering: the work being done by @jalondonot to move some of the contributor meetup updates from the synchronous meeting to an async update on the forum. Each sprint’s updates are being grouped in a single thread, which contains both the core contributor async sprin…

@antoviaque Thanks for letting me know that the Core Contributor and Working Group updates are now displayed in a single thread each sprint. I agree with @jalondonot ’s suggestion to reassess the updates and decide what is and isn’t important to share; currently, there is a lot to wade through, and I…

Call for review I’m reviving this thread :woman_zombie: to ask for your help… I’ve created a draft survey covering some of the points discussed above. I’d like to send it out to all of our Core Contributors, but first I want to know if we’re asking the right questions, and if we’re asking them in t…

Great survey, Ali! A few comments: When asking about the CC work sprint schedule, I would add a link to the schedule so people can review it. When asking “Should we continue doing sprints”, I suggest asking “why?” regardless of the response (if we’re after this info, and if it doesn’t add too muc…

Thanks for your feedback @gabrieldamours ! [image] gabrieldamours: When asking about the CC work sprint schedule, I would add a link to the schedule so people can review it. Good idea! Do you know of a link that could work here? I can’t seem to find anywhere that describes the schedule. […

You’re welcome! [image] ali_hugo: Do you know of a link that could work here? I can’t seem to find anywhere that describes the schedule. Me neither, so maybe we’re involuntarily raising a documentation issue, here. I would have expected to find a “Core Contributor Sprints” description/sectio…

[image] gabrieldamours: Maybe it wasn’t added because we’re still in beta (?) Maybe. It does feel quite prescriptive to add a schedule to the documentation before we know how Core Contributors want to plan their time. So instead of adding something to the wiki now, I think I’ll add a descript…
