• Weekly Kickoff Meeting (each Monday)
  • Sprint Participants (or a representative from your organization) should attend the Sprint Week Kickoff Meeting in DSpace Meeting Room.
    • Anyone unable to attend must touch base with the Sprint Coordinator (Tim Donohue) via another means (Slack, DSpace Meeting Room, email, etc) for any necessary information.
  • The goal of the Kickoff meeting is to:
    • Touch base & finalize plans / goals for the Sprint week (i.e. ensure everyone is on the same page)
    • Ensure all participants have assigned tasks, and any necessary support/resources to begin their work
    • As necessary, go through expectations / protocols of the Sprint (e.g. Contributing code via PRs, Where to ask for help/support, Meeting schedule for week, etc)
    • Address or discuss any questions that sprint participants may have
• Daily Standups via Slack: On each day of the sprint (Tues-Fri), prior to 15:00 UTC, each participant should report their status update in the Slack #dev channel.  This will act as our daily "standup" meeting.

Support Options

• Sprint coaches are available for support. Keep in mind however that Sprint sprint coaches may be in a different timezone from you.   Therefore, we recommend questions be asked publicly in Slack (please . You may mention specific individuals by name to alert them to your message, but please avoid private one-on-one messaging). That way other sprint participants/coaches may also provide support and/or learn from your questions.
• Requests for help / questions can be asked on Slack. (Please use the #dev-sprint channel)
• The DSpace Meeting Room may also be used to do pair programming / screen sharing / ad hoc meetings / support. Keep in mind we only have the one room, so be sure to share it with others if they need it.
