Re: [teampractices] Publishing notes from retrospectives and other Scrum meetings

I've just started doing this with Fundraising... currently posting to
collab while I work out what's public vs. internal content. We have a lot
of sensitive info wrt payments and I'm still learning where the line is.

Here it is:

Based on the fact that most teams which are keeping retrospective notes
seem to be publishing them publicly, we've done the same for Growth at

The Flow team has kinda taken it to the next level -- we do Flow
retrospectives via Flow on our Flow test wiki (yo dawg) :)
http://ee-flow.wmflabs.org/wiki/Talk:Flow_Team_Retrospective

It's not entirely public, though, in the sense that it's not a wiki most
people would visit and not prominently advertised anywhere. But then again,
you could probably say the same thing about mw.org... In any case, I think
it's nice to have all the discussions in one more or less easily-searchable
place, and, though we don't do it as much as we should, it's nice to be
able to revisit the items from last retrospective to quickly get a sense of
whether the action items got done.

The mobile web team almost always publishes retrospective notes on
mediawiki.org.

I give the team the chance to voice concerns about having the notes
published publicly. If the team ever feels like they should not be posted
publicly, or posted with redactions, I honor that.

Mobile Web, App, and Zero teams publish their notes

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Apps/Team
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mobile_web/Team
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikipedia_Zero#Retrospectives

We really liked it and it makes engaging our users much easier to know
where we need help. Say around community testing. I highly recommend
it. It also lets the other mobile teams know whats working/not between
scrum masters and engineers.

[teampractices] Publishing notes from retrospectives and other Scrum meetings

[Steven Walling]

Hey everyone,

So I recently led two retrospectives, one for the typography overall we
recently did on Wikimedia sites and one for my regular team (Growth, in
Features engineering).

We decided to publish the typography retrospective notes on mediawiki.org(at
mediawiki.org/wiki/Typography_refresh/Retrospective). The Growth team notes
are slightly more sensitive so we published it on the private office wiki.

I'm wondering do others publish their retrospective notes, publicly or
privately within the organization? I'm not very experienced running these,
so I'm wondering what your take is.
