Re: [Pharo-dev] Pharo hangout analysis
I was too immerse in my own stuff, next time I'll try to collaborate a bit more :). In any case, it was fun for me, and much more friendly than the irc channel :P. When's the next one?

Re: [Pharo-dev] Pharo hangout analysis
Esteban, I joined to the hangout session and I think it was ok. I was at my work so I could just heard the conversation, like a radio. Anyway, I watched the handout screen at times and I was interesting. I think that could be very interesting to do pair programming on some issues. So, go ahead with it. Maybe, It'll be interesting to let pleople connect to the session, just to see too. Regards, Facu ps.: I hope to see you next week in Argentine. The other Esteban (EAM) said to me that you're coming here next week.

And we more or less worked in fixing bugs and talked about Pharo development, etc. No one there worked like that before and we need to acquire more experience to do the kind of things that makes our team work better: we need to learn how to explain our stuff, how to share our screen and do things, etc. But I think as a first experience it was very positive. At least, we could hang (out ;)) and share working context with people that we usually don't. And I think all presents are a bit more aware of Pharo process now (not a lot more aware, but a bit :) So... we will repeat this experience once a month, because I think they are very positive and we will improve them with practice. But I also would like to add other ideas that came to my mind while sprinting. For example, I think we succeed in create the feeling of all of us are working together that a sprint has, but we failed in pair program. So I would like to try remote-pair program too. How can we manage it? well, instead an open sprint, we declare I want to work on this issue, and we invite people to join... and we join two or three with same interest into a shared screen and with real participation. What do you think? cheers, Esteban
