Items from the retrospective before last
Supporter of the week
If on-call keep an eye on the emails etc
It’s good that people are keeping an eye on it, just need to remember to add the note
The being on-call/supporter of the week wiki was highlighted
The wiki page needs updating, including which teams channels to watch over and checking up on pending tasks that are due that day
DO volunteered to update the notes with some aspects
CMS will have a look sometime about any other tasks
Items from the last retrospective
Email template
Still needs to be done, DO will look at this
POLARIS Sample Changer
POLARIS was happy, but transferring to SANDALS meant that the system was not easy to use there, partly due to balancing the needs of different instruments, and partly due to the present working situation
Support channel
Helpful, but probably need to keep an eye on patterns/trends. However, the developers are usually pretty good at keeping an eye on those
Useful for the quick issues but which still allows knowledge to be shared
Items from this retrospective
Release notes
Lots in the dev notes that were not moved into the release notes, and there may be some that are missing from the dev notes as well
There are tickets in the backlog that cover this, these will be proposed for the “Friday” sprint
Review should have an entry in the Dev release notes, review complete needs to be added to the scientist visible release notes
Presence on site not enough if there are multiple tasks at once
Considering more people on-site to allow for meetings and support, and deal with multiple items
Remind the other teams that advance warning of things moving that may need help to set up advance warning helps us to make sure that we can provide an appropriate level of support
Additional Comments
Did very well with the tickets, we should be happy with the graph
Board is relatively clear
Tickets in progress or in review get completed, tickets in ready and the bucket will be considered for inclusion in the Friday sprint, any not added will be reprioritised as standard in January
