no, i think the sprint master needs to prepare the discussion etherpads-- otherwise they will not be done.

well, someone has to. not each of the discussion leads

Ok i see https://github.com/ipfs/pm/pull/66/files#diff-04c6e90faac2675aa89e2176d2eec7d8R110 -- the distinction between these is unclear -- if these are meant to be separate roles (that's fine by me) -- "sprint master" should not be in the name of both...

Basically, one person should be in charge of the actual sync - making sure it runs, on IRC - and another person should be in charge of the GitHub sprint and etherpads. (Realistically, they're both me). I'll change the terminology to make it less confusing.

Ok. Overhauled it again. The real issue here is that we don't actually have a Sprint master at the moment. We have an admin person doing stuff on GitHub, and a sync moderator, but not really someone who makes sure that everyone is up to date and that backlogs get pushed out. We do this as a team, and the discussion leads generally tend to be pseudo-autonymous in their particular areas. I've updated the document to show that, renamed sync master to sync moderator, clarified about the sprint master by creating a role for it, and also moved all of the roles down to their own section. I'm happier with this edition. What do yall think? |

Overhauled again: I just merged GitHub, Sync, and Discussion moderator into one role, the admin, which really is me. This reads a bit cleaner now. CR? cc @dignifiedquire @jbenet |
Modified the sprint masters role, making it clear that they only run the sprint. The GitHub Masters role has been expanded to include making the sprint issue and all of the etherpads for the discussion leads, and pinging both leads beforehand and any active contributors afterwards. Also some basic edits.

Thanks. I am going to merge this, as this only reflects the processes we already have in place. If anyone wants to discuss this post merge, open a PR or ping me directly. |
