A suggestion: podling post-mortems

2015-10-12 Thread Andrew Bayer
I'd like to make a suggestion - after a podling graduates or is terminated,
the podling's mentors should be responsible for putting together a post
mortem report, or an exit interview, or whatever you want to call it. This
would cover the pain points in onboarding the podling, particular issues
hit during incubation, what made the podling easier or harder to get to
graduation, and ideally a self assessment of what the mentors think they
could have done better.

I think this would be very valuable - it'd help shine a light on
inefficiencies in getting into the ASF's infrastructure, show things to
watch for/discuss in podling cultural integration, and provide more
information and self-support for future mentors.

Thoughts?

A.

I like the idea, not sure how that would look but I'd welcome an
experiment at least.



It would be very welcome to have this attached to a graduation 
resolution, so that we could have some background beyond just a 
boilerplate "time to graduate" message. That may delay the actual time 
to graduate, but would allow us to be more than a rubber stamp, but 
actually offer some oversight.

Re: A suggestion: podling post-mortems

2015-10-12 Thread Pierre Smits
Since when is the incubation process a race that must be completed in the
least amount of time? If it is, it would surely validate (for some) cutting
corners and push-through actions (and associated tactics). Is that what the
ASF wants or needs?

Help us understand how you jumped from this email thread to that 
conclusion, because I'm not seeing it.

Pierre: by "time to graduate", Rich meant "ready to graduate". Not the
amount of time from entry until graduation.
