Minutes

  1. Epic level planning and estimating
    • inputs from team complete
  2. Methodology
    • epics/stories/tasks
    • estimates are done at story-level
    • if a story is > 8pts, it is converted to an epic
    • need to add field in jira for story-points in 'tasks'
    • it will take more time (6 weeks?) to hone in on accurate velocity
  3. Scheduling
    • not all short-term stories have yet been created
    • approaches
      1. start working, and back-fill jira work (planning)
      2. do not start iteration until jira work for iteration is complete
    • suggestion
      1. get jiras populated for work in next two weeks out
      2. we come to next week's meeting with stories to review
    • need basic agreements: java6? scm? appserver?
    • define what each team member is planning on working on in short-term
    • discussed jira DFR-63 as an example
        • story-points 2?
        • Bill 3pts
        • Chris 2pts
    • Brad and I to put story points against security tasks
    • Dan and Chris to look at Object Creation Service
