I wanted to give an update of sorts here as well as make some agenda suggestion. We could use this to guide the flow for the three days of the event. I think the purpose I laid out on the wiki page earlier doesn't give a good idea of how to cut up the time to make it as productive as possible. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAD_Documentation_2016 I'm not an expert at mapping out this kind of FAD, but since no one else has built the agenda, here's a starting point. I'm not looking to impose a heavy process here, and I would *strongly* discourage process mavens from bogging down that way. We want to keep ideas flowing and avoid ratholes. The agenda gets wider/looser as it goes on. This is purposely to avoid running up against a clock at a critical point. It's OK if we finish some things early; conversely, if we run late, we have slack time to account for that. We will have an audio dial-in posted on the FAD page shortly for remote folks who want to attend via phone. This room does not have built in video conferencing, but if that becomes necessary we can broadcast from a laptop. * * * Friday, May 6 (all times in EDT, UTC-4) The goal for day 1 is to figure out the workflows we need to support for the best possible engagement across all the people involved. * 09:30am - Arrive at lobby at Red Hat Tower -- I'm working with Remy so we can get everyone into the building appropriately. We have the "Fedora" room on 9th floor reserved, which is publicly accessible. * 09:45am - Introductions, get acquainted * 10:00am - Go around the room and state your meeting goals, pain points, what skills/resources you bring to the FAD * 11:00am - Map out high level user stories (we may have some already) -- I would ask that we *AVOID* any talk about any specific tools, markup, or implementation until done with this * 12:30pm - Lunch * 02:00pm - Finish user stories * 04:00pm - Start discussing currently available tools and the user stories they either hit or miss * 05:30pm - end of day(ish), depending on how discussions go -- record a "report out" on activities for community transparency * 06:30pm - dinner somewhere TBD Saturday, May 7 The goal for day 2 is to come to an agreement across all involved on the tools needed to achieve the workflows we described on day 1. * 09:30am - convene, continue tools talk * 12:30pm - Lunch * 02:00pm - Ideally, we have reached a point we agree on a tools strategy. If not, this day continues until done! If so, we can move on to mapping out any system changes, infrastructure work, enhancements, or features that someone needs to create; and assign each of these with a due date to someone. * 06:00pm - end of day(ish) -- record "report out" * 07:00pm - dinner somewhere TBD Sunday, May 8 The goal for day 3 is to hack on things while we're f2f. This should be done in a concerted, sprinty way (e.g. cards) to avoid getting off topic or otherwise wasting time. -- Paul W.
