Don't
know if what we do in our shop here qualifies for your question or not, but our
dev groups do "stand-up meetings." Relatively quick meetings (that can be done
standing up; no meeting rooms required) that are usually finished in about 20
minutes. In the stand-ups, we get heads-up for things and specifications that
might be coming down the pipeline from the product management and design side.
We get a quick update on the state of deployment (what version has rolled into
production, what version is in the QA pipeline) and what the next impending set
of changes are about to get pushed onto the dev servers. If there's any
potential "gotcha"s that have been experienced (especially on the coding front)
they get publicized in the stand-ups as well.
The
main point of our stand-ups are to make sure that all the developers are
relatively aware of the scheduling and direction of the product, and to
highlight any programming difficulties and workarounds that might arise so that
when different developers hit those gotchas, they'll already know that a
solution might already.
These
stand-up meetings are basically within a development team/group. Project leads
have their own meetings with the product management group. So essentially, the
product manager has his own meetings; then the product manager has meetings with
the dev project leads to convey what they want in the next iteration of the
product; the project leads then present these to the dev group in a stand-up
meeting.
