Blockers

Team

• Many open pull requests limiting progress (lots of WIP here)

  • core committer access will help with part of this but not the full challenge

  • some of this is due to the size of the pull requests (API changes to support multiple milestones, additionally a front end PR is also large)

  • context switching also doesn't help here

• In the future, goal is to try to limit size of PRs, have more tasks in Jira for this.

• How to balance speed + quality here

  • reviewed are still critical here, TBD on what team decides for some of these larger pull requests.

• Open architectural questions - how to address

  • ADR first model for these changes

• Next step - generate list of open questions for what we want to do in the future (so we can answer what we do next)
