PCM Development/Palladio Concall/Minutes 20211012

Agenda

too little number of participants for meeting on site, no benefit in hybrid meeting (in comparison to the already planned testing day)
postpone next concall to one week after the SSP

Some progress but nothing significant to note
mostly all tickets from the previous sprint were copied
Reasons for little progress?
- Conflicting work prevents from making progress
- Insufficient visibility of progress w/r/t new features as mostly only bugs are tracked
Can we increase the visibility?
- Tracking of new features in Jira as well
  - Would facilitate creating change logs on release
  - But: ticket in shared issue tracker might prevent discussion on necessity / benefit of new feature
  - Features concerning Palladio projects should be tracked (ideally every PR on Github should have an issue assigned)
Should we further use the Concall to increase discussion among all participants
- Suggestion: Shortly discuss current extensions in progress in Palladio Concall
  - instead use Research Meeting?
    - for research questions / high level discussion, yes.
    - for technical aspects the concall would be a suitable venue
  - limited to 5 minutes and defer further discussion
  - increase visibility of new features / changes
  - every body decides whether own contribution qualifies for presentation
- Suggestion 2: Introduce kind of standup for tickets
  - Shortly summarize progress of Palladio work (1-2 minutes)
  - Identify aspects relevant to discuss extensively
  - No pressure (the answer "no progress" should be completely valid)

will take place on 16.11.2021
depending on agenda we will evaluate both suggestions to increase discussion
TODO for everyone: Further think about, what constitutes a successful concall?
- What would be benefitial for me to discuss?
