Design meeting agenda for Wednesday May 23, 2018

The weekly design meeting is Wednesdays at 17.00 UTC (see it in your time). We’ll be discussing the topics below. If you have anything you want to discuss, please add it to the comments of this post, or mention it on our Slack channel.

Triage Inbox

See Inbox column on Trello board. New requests for design made via the Make blog, SlackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform https://slack.com/. The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at https://make.wordpress.org/chat/., etc. should be transferred to Inbox each week, along with any new cards that need to be acknowledged.

Calls for design: follow-ups

See Calls for Design column on Trello board. Anything to be archived? Follow up on in-progress cards, etc. Also see #needs-design tickets from TracTrac Trac is the place where contributors create issues for bugs or feature requests much like GitHub.https://core.trac.wordpress.org/..

Items labeled ready to review in the meeting

Filter Trello board for ‘meeting’ label which means that some work has gone into the card, and we have enough detail to make a decision on it.

  • Nothing this week

Housekeeping

Design team related

  • Onboarding new contributors: After discussion last week, a weekly post by a team repTeam Rep A Team Rep is a person who represents the Make WordPress team to the rest of the project, make sure issues are raised and addressed as needed, and coordinates cross-team efforts. seems a good balance between an automated Slackbot (which proved a challenge to set up the way we wanted) and individual outreach to every person who joins. See an example. Question: how to divide the work or schedule this so we don’t forget?

If time allows, follow-up on older cards

Filter Trello board for ‘needs discussion’ label. If none, triage any TrelloTrello Project management system using the concepts of boards and cards to organize tasks in a sane way. This is what the make.wordpress.com/marketing team uses for example: https://trello.com/b/8UGHVBu8/wp-marketing. cards that are not yet owned.
