New agile development process introduced
- more contributions compared to year before
- process adopted and positive feedback
Not all projects have been fully integrated into continuous integration
- SoMoX
- Incubation projects
Need for better guidelines
- Good commit messages necessary (also include JIRA ticket number)
- Comments in JIRA tickets about chosen solution / status should be made (at least link to pull request)
Velocity
- Velocity Chart
- already addressed in ConCall 09.06.2020
- some people depend on tickets, therefore they should be solved

SOMOX-28 The SoMoX build migration is ongoing
Design decisions already made for maintenance:
- SOMOX-35 Use our JaMoPP fork to read-in Java source code
- SIG SoMoX The original approach by Krogmann (simple model analyzer) is discarded and not maintained

Entry point Wiki Page 'Kategorie: PCM_Development' https://sdqweb.ipd.kit.edu/wiki/Kategorie:PCM_Development

Github documentation; created per repository; not consistent and partly incomplete; e.g.

a lot of documentation exists, already organized in meaningful clusters (ref. landing page); BUT documentation is highly distributed across multiple places; great parts not maintained with outdated information
difficult to get a fast overview and also finding relevant information; no central entry point
question: which topics are currently missing in the documentation ?

Test case assignment and test execution
- assign the test case to yourself
- document errors in execution in the comment section
- set the test status to succeeded or failed
