Re: [Wikitech-l] 2017-03-08 Scrum of Scrums meeting notes

2017-03-10 Thread Pine W
Thanks for pushing out these updates, Grace.

I have a question. Is there a list somewhere of who should be contacted
with questions about a particular project or team? Some WMF people are very
good about responding to emails or talk page inquiries, while other
people's inboxes seem to be black holes and they may or may not respond to
inquiries on their talk pages.

Thanks,

Pine

I should have been been more explicit - listening in isn't an option
either for me. I'll watch the recording later, but that entirely defeats
the "higher bandwidth" point.

I made a request to the document author for that, I imagine should be
available next week. Nothing secret in there, though.

I didn't try to open the link until now, but it requires a Google
account to view, and is only visible to those in the WMF - could it be
moved to mediawiki.org please?

With audio and video, hangouts provide a somewhat higher bandwidth, and
avoid the problem of many people discussing several topics at the same time
that larger IRC meetings frequently run into.

You can still listen in & ask questions via the hangout chat, or the
regular office IRC channel. Adam volunteered to monitor the channel, so
that questions can be addressed. The meeting will also be recorded at the
youtube link I provided, so you can catch up later, and ask follow-up
questions by mail.

Can I ask why? At least for me, Google Hangouts simply isn't an option
to participate when I'm in a crowded library/classroom.

I'll get this posted on https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC_office_hours
with a pointer to #wikimedia-office on Freenode just in case the Hangout
fills up and people need to interact that way (although I'd recommend the
Hangout because the stream will be slightly time delayed).
