Projects/Geometry Nodes/Sprint6

= Sprint 6 =


 * Start: 2021/01/12
 * End: 2021/01/22

What went well

 * Simon insisting on a robust demo file.
 * Got great feedback on the collection info node.
 * Seeing the progress is great. very active channel
 * More community contribution.
 * People getting involved (implementing features, design tasks)
 * More time in testing patches and giving feedback.
 * Opening up the channel for development. After a few moderations the community acts appropriate.

What didn't go well

 * Lacking on planning effort results in little progress in the design tasks. Time to spend more time to the project.
 * Proposal to have a 1 week sprint to only focus on design tasks (also technical).
 * Did a lot of back and forth. Thought that something was working, but didn't think of all the test scenarios.
 * There was a discussion about adding test scenarios in the design task (scoping what should work) and adding test cases.
 * Time management (over promising, getting distracting)
 * Beginning of the sprint was very hectic.
 * Sharing stuff to late.
 * Early on sharing on a public branch or with screen shots in the task or on the channel.

Improvements

 * Be more in touch with the users receive the project in the product owner role.
 * Work with community improvements on scattering.
 * If we want the community involved we have the spent time on it.
 * Within the sprint we want to get more experienced first.
 * Involving the community should not be the responsibility of the team. The development manager/community manager should.
 * More team members mention this issue. Discussion went from the differences between the scattering example and distribute example.
 * Make the process of giving feedback of community designs part of our own design discussions.
 * Sharing earlier
 * Ask more. Have a place where we can ask/discuss the project in an earlier stage. Like in the first sprints.
 * Be more aware of the bcon phases for the upcoming sprints. Have a moment during the sprint planning for this.
 * Should the end user testing be part of the development task.
 * Add nice to have improvements for the product backlog. File it under (unaddressed feedback) on the product backlog. Already assigned to Dalai.
 * Update the sprint log template.
 * Remove unneeded parts
 * Promised part, not mention specific tasks, but add the user story/use case.
 * Goal.
 * Make someone responsible at the beginning of the sprint for the demo.
