Notes:

  • PC-Presentation:

    • inform the PC on our progress on evaluating possible tools to organize the ranking process better

    • present all the different ways to rank the features

    • Have aSIG Ranking and an institutional Ranking on the same features/same list in an integrated way

    • We have to watch out for features that are not dedicated to one special SIG so these do not go missing

    • One Option could also be to send out a survey once a year to include the hole community

    • weighing needs to be decided: consortias, implemented institutions will have more weight here

    • In addition: a separate product focused survey by the PC to find out general needs or faults of the system (every 6 month)

      • including which functional areas are most important

      • should be one survey per area/SIG

    • Communication on the survey and ranking process should be broad, so that it includes everyone

    • how often is ranking needed or is it an ongoing process?

      • 6 month

    • have the institutions and SIGs rank on different dates/cycles to clearly separate them

    • Give institutions the chance to just step back from the latest ranking (taking the ranking from last cycle)

    • Missing from last pointing process: ranking something not relevant!

    • A ranking R1-R5 vs a prioritised list of all features - combining them could be a way?

PC presentation

  • present revised slide deck to PC: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/13nt-8deuTQ8Ama1zbLkrOj22fVFXXRVb/edit#slide=id.p6

    • focus on feedback that we got and questions that we clarified

  • discuss new ideas today and in PC

    • combine SIG and institutional ranking

    • survey instead of institutional ranking

    • why?

      • request to have rankable chunks → question for POs: how can we reach that?

      • work load vs. amount of influence

  • meet with POs

  • meet with SIGs

  • meet with CC?

  • meet at Wolfcon and use that as final deadline for new prioritization start
