ickoff Kickoff Agenda (10/9/18) - turn it into own page so that we can take notes

...

  • How are we doing on our existing DEPR tickets?

    • Datadog

      • edx-platform PR 

      • Remaining Datadog repos

  • Let's go through the repos in the edx org and figure out which ones can be deleted

  • Hackathon Pre-planning

    • See if we can pick up stragglers who don't have projects

  • Assign DEPR ticket creation

  • Spreadsheet

...

  • Look through toggle report to find candidates for DEPR

    • Make tickets for good candidates

  • Notifier deprecation

    • A few minor comments but not much

    • Can we move to accepted?

  • shoppingcart deprecation

    • Hooray for getting rid of donations workflow!

    • Javascript issues

      • Javascript calls urls that are in shoppingcart

      • Let’s take a look at whether or not these endpoints are called in production

    • Tests are relying on having a stubbed shoppingcart for their flows

    • Work plan:

      • Put stuff back into PR until tests pass

        • This seems to be a cascading problem, skipping to moving stub payment service next

      • Remove Javascript separately

        • Understand what needs to be done for verify_student JS

        • We might be able to delete payment steps from the verify_student flow. Are people in the community using this?

      • Move stub payment service into commerce or other reasonable place without shoppingcart stub parts

      • Remove all other shoppingcart code

Agenda (9/15/20)

  • Elasticsearch Upgrade
