Handbook

There has been two suggestions put forward for the recommended page in the review section of the team handbook.
Please consider these options:

  • Delete it.
    The page has been unused for years and the text on it even says This page has been removed.
    Some background information: The content of the page was removed because it had subjective design recommendations and the team does not review design.
  • Re-use it for requirements that are being reduced from requirements to recommendations
    As the team continues the work to reduce requirements, there are listings that we want to keep as recommendations. The recommended page may be suitable for this content.

Open Floor

We will discuss everything related to themes. Attendees can ask or share themes related things.
