A bit dated, but still an interesting read: http://dt.deviantart.com/journal/We-re-all-remote-220038037
In particular, I like this idea: - - - Reactor We do have one long-running project team called Reactor. Its role is to fix bugs that aren't related to other active projects, and to implement features that aren't large enough to warrant spinning up a separate project. It's also where we assign all new hires initially, so its lead developer gets to mentor them and introduce them to our codebase. Reactor makes a good training ground since it's guaranteed to drag developers through disparate areas of deviantART. -- Erik Möller VP of Engineering and Product Development, Wikimedia Foundation _______________________________________________ teampractices mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/teampractices
