Hey all, 13.04 has just wrapped up and it's time to start thinking about what we're going to do in the next cycle. I don't think anyone would dispute the fact that we never came close to fixing 100 bugs over the over six months, and I think we should take some time to figure out why that happened, and what we could do better in this cycle.
If anyone has anything they'd like to say about how we've been working, then please come out and say it, no matter how critical it is. The only way we're going to get better at this is by facing up to the truth, no matter how hard it is. A few points I'd like to make: - I dropped off the radar for the past few months as real life has gotten in the way. I fucked that one up and I'll look at managing my time better. One thing I'm thinking of doing is setting aside one evening each week for Ubuntu stuff, so no matter what else happens, I've always got the slot of time to give to the project. - We didn't target all 100 bugs at the very start, which made it harder for people to know what there was to do. - I went a little mad shortly after the start of the 13.04 cycle, and changed up a bunch of the milestones around the second month. That won't be happening again because we're going to talk together about what we want to do for the coming cycle and stick with it. I hope that by the end of next week (Sunday 19th) we can have our milestones and bug targets sorted out. - It's been mentioned before that it's not clear from our wiki pages how a new user should get involved with the project. I agree with that and we should have a look at our 'getting started' documentation to figure out how we can improve it. Those are my thoughts on what happened last cycle and what we can improve next cycle. what do other people have to say? Chris
