  • Communicating “busy weeks” from the edX side

    • @Kyle McCormick (Deactivated) will be more explicit about weeks that he does/doesn’t have a lot of bandwith to review and answer questions

  • Timeline

    • Overshooting Milestone 2 deadline by 1 sprint

    • Reason: Block editor modernization

      • blocked by TNL-7592

      • Braden’s idea: New XBlock view called “edit view”

        • Would only be used by the MFE

        • Would exist alongside “student view” and “author view”

        • author view doesn’t work in MFE when iframed in

          • would be ugly to kludge the author view support into the MFE

      • OC needs edX feedback on the “edit view” idea

      • OC is already moving forward on this idea, so timely feedback is needed from us

      • The general idea sounds good to @Dave Ormsbee (Deactivated) and @Kyle McCormick (Deactivated) .

      • @Former user (Deleted) will have his team ADR this

    • Milestone 3

      • Taxonomy will not within original BD-14 budget

      • OC has some extra hours in this milestone that they could use to start tacking Taxonomies

      • do we need a new xblock for randomizedcontent, or can we use the existing one?

        • that’s a paramount questions to answer

      • Marco: Allocate any remaining hours to iteration on UX, focus on feature parity. Not taxonomies for now.

      • @Former user (Deleted) Let us know what made it the case that Taxonomies won’t be ready for December. Will help us understand & adjust for future BD projects.

      • Even before parity, making an end-to-end functioning system is a priority.

    • @Former user (Deleted) can write an ADR on the inclusion mechanics in the source from library xblock.

    • Open edX roadmap workshop: deadline for opportunity brief proposals 9/30.

      • https://open.edx.org/blog/open-edx-roadmap-workshop/

      • Blockstore would be excellent to discuss at this workshop

      • Braden would be able to speak to this. @Former user (Deleted) will poke him.

      • Both Content Libraries V2 and Taxonomies/Tagging are opportunities worth discussing.

      • LabXChange is a benchmark itself in terms of what we can use Blockstore for, how we can move in the direction of learner contexts

      • Surfacing wins from LabXChange would help us advocate for blockstore adoption on edx.org
