Why?
To have a discussion around the stable release, and how to improve the process. This will be very similar in intent to previous retrospectives.
What?
We will hold a 1-hour meeting on Jitsi Meet to facilitate questions and have a discussion around what didn’t work well and how to improve. We’ll start by trying to collect and rank topics, and then walk through them in descending order. To keep the pace of discussion going, we’ll try to time-box the discussion (5 mins initial, with 2 minute extensions), so we don’t end up just talking about one topic the entire time.
Topics should be categorized into three sections:
-
What went well?
-
What was notable, even if neutral?
-
What went badly?
The desired outcome is to arrive at some “action items” which can be applied to improve the next NixOS release.
If we don’t arrive at the particular topic you were interested in, this doesn’t mean it wasn’t important, we just didn’t get around to it in this meeting. Feel free to post your topic to this thread to get a discussion started.
When? Where?
2024-06-15T16:00:00Z → 2024-06-15T17:00:00Z
Who?
Anyone who has valuable feedback on the 24.05 release. If you attempted to contribute, contributed or used the release, you are welcome to participate.
Policy for this Discourse thread
Please feel free to add anything to the following topics in a post:
-
What went well?
-
What do you feel neutral about?
-
What did you feel negative about?
You can also start a discussion to other people’s posts, however, if a particular topic warrants its own thread, then it should probably be moved into its own thread. We would like to mainly keep this thread focused on discussion topics for the retrospective meeting.
