At lunch today, a few of us discussed the idea of moving from two sheriffs
to four.
There are several reasons we contemplated such a change:
* The team is large enough that on the current schedule, you go months
between sheriffing, which is so long that you forget things like what tools
help you do what.
* Sheriffing is a heavy burden, and getting moreso with more team members.
* Either the two sheriffs are in different time zones, in which case you
have effectively one sheriff on duty who has to do everything (bad due to
point above), or they're not, in which case a chunk of the day is not
covered at all.
* New sheriffs could really use a "mentor sheriff" with them, which is
pretty difficult to schedule.
I think these are good reasons, so I propose we make this change. Comments?
