Big thanks again, all!
Some good comments and insights here. To cherry-pick one of @kaythaney's suggestions on checkins: I think @hannahkane's involvement in the MLN directors calls would be a great place to start. The next two have very relevant items in the agenda, I'll reach out to Lainie.
I was very pleased with how this all came together from a design & build perspective! Nice work, all.
My only lingering concern is the choice to not have a staging environment and instead promote any edits directly to production. I think this is acceptable for the moment, as we're just getting started, but should be revisited as we begin to scale.
Great point on the staging environment, @gvn.
And +1 to @simonwex 's suggestion. To build on that, @hannahkane - would love to find a time outside of those meetings to be in more regular communication to support your work. Let me know what'd work best!
Went well from my perspective. I got content, assets and feedback quickly which made the process smooth.
Let's test content updating! We made the assumption that the content would be easy to update by non-devs, so let's test that as soon as we can. @amirad - will you be updating the content in the future? If so, let's jump on a call and make some trivial changes to see how it goes.
I'm going to do a bad job summarizing/condensing the really well made points above but I'm going to try anyway (Thank you very much to all who contributed to this debrief :) ) :P
cc @simonwex (what would be a good place to archive this so that we can refer this report later?)
@gideonthomas - mofo.build might be a good place to archive.
Sorry for the delay while traveling! The summaries look great and cover much of what I would have said anyways. My only other to add on the what worked well was: knowing and having Gideon as manager from start to end doing this debrief
Also, @flukeout I actually need to update a few things in the next week so will give feedback really soon!
@amirad Thanks! And thanks for being so prompt with QA, content, feedback, etc.; it made the process really smooth.
@hannahkane do you know who I would talk to to get this content on there? Matt maybe?
Just added you as an Admin, @gideonthomas.
@flukeout yesterday I updated a post, added resources, changed text and re-ordered some of the logos! Everything was easy-peasy and worked well for me!
Based on the project and its timeline outlined here: https://github.com/MozillaFoundation/plan/issues/826, we should talk a little bit about what we can learn from the whole experience.
It would be awesome if @flukeout, @gvn, @hannahkane, @amirad and @kaythaney would share their thoughts that might help inform how we approach future projects similar to this. This is not a requirement at all so if you think that your thoughts are captured by other comments, it's ok to not repeat.
Some things you can comment on could be:
You could talk about any/all of this and anything else you would like to add (things we did right as well as things we did wrong along with suggestions on how we can improve).
