    Notes

    NASCAR

    "whatta race, did you see that race. don't wear white gloves, blah, blah, blah"

    Review Last Week

    • Recap for Jason - who was on vacation, about the meeting last week
    • CMS: Ivelin is editing directly on the server, we just need to encourage him to commit those changes to svn so that we can do local testing, we have recoverability for critical changes, we've got the backups covered, etc. Daniel will drop him a note and remind him about SVN.
    • Performance problems in AaE came from user feedback.
    • Brief rediscussion of metrics for Question Wranglers. No clear direction, just need to keep in mind the value: "Get the public's question answered as quickly as possible"

    AaE Expert Search Changes

    • Immediate: we have to stay with the tooltips for the release tomorrow. Paginating the results list improves performance.
    • Near Future: move to a full screen assignment view, with more information at a glance. Schedule in with other priorities

    Darmok Release

    • Targeted for Wednesday morning (Mar 9)

    Dega Release

    • Still looking at next Monday/Tuesday (maybe Wednesday after staff meeting)

    CoP National Conference

    • Will be sending just a few staff, should be able to cover requested topics.
