CC Feedback

Last time:

• Simeon re the Cost Review Group page: I like this proposal. Should there be a specific goals for "periodic" review of user permissions and the timeline of reporting on the budget?

  • User permissions:

    • @Mark Veksler : align with flower releases.  Less frequent can be a security risk if someone rolls off the project.  Shouldn't take long.

    • Group agrees.

  • Budget reporting:

    • @Mark Veksler set annual budget at start of FY.  Submit to CC for approval.  Review in alignment with flower releases.

      • Change 'review" to "set" the budgets, budget alerts, etc. annually.

      • Kitfox reports on actual AWS costs after every sprint (2w).  Report maybe monthly on their portion?  If @Peter Murray   turned it into the overall report.

• @Mark Veksler can join CC meeting on 8/14.

Today:

• @Mark Veksler do the simplest possible.  Kitfox reports costs at sprint review.  Maybe monthly report the actuals vs. budget.

  • @Peter Murray Invoice arrives on 2nd or 3rd of month.

  • @Maccabee Levine how do we add value to Paula's numbers?

  • @Peter Murray context: why did it increase or drop from previous month?  Trend line of individual services.  If it looks weird, looking deeper at why.  Should be easily generated into a spreadsheet.

  • @Mark Veksler Ask Paula at what frequency she wants updates?

• @Peter Murray will update budget page to parallel ACRG page.

New environment

• Reporting to CC since ACRG doesn't exist yet?

• Be prepared if there is a question from CC.

CC on August 14th

• @Peter Murray will attend CC.  10am ET.
