= Browser Compat Project Meeting: 02/16/2016 =

'''Attendees:''' Jeremie Patonnier, Stephanie Hobson, John Whitlock, Florian Scholz, Jean-Yves Perrier, Matthew Brandt, Eric Shepherd, Stephen Donner.

== Discussion topics ==

=== Agenda ===

* [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YgUVcvXxY0ocdThTdKzFTwR83OEiP1wF-uet7UjB9dQ/edit?usp=sharing Project Status]
** Bicycle is the next target and is 12% done.
** We now have a running project management process, however we still have 2 pending issues.
*** The completion rate is still unknown which prevents us from providing any timeline so far. Bicycle will be a test run to see how to handle that.
*** The opening bugs trend is higher than the closing bugs trend. It's not unexpected at this stage of the project, but it could indicate two things:
**** We want to do too many things. If so, we need to revisit our requirements.
**** We underestimated the costs of the project. If so we need to revisit the project benefits to confirm its validity.
*** Because of that low velocity in closing bugs, a formal warning must be raised, as it is a requirement to go faster if we want to deliver the project this year.
* [[MDN/Projects/Development/CompatibilityTables/Milestones/Bicycle|Bicycle milestone]] freeze
** Currently that milestone has: http://mzl.la/1QBNoJc
*** 3 major bugs (to be freezed)
*** 19 normal bugs  (with 6 of them not blocking a major bug)
*** 0 minor bugs
** This is a "small" milestone but we keep it that way in order to measure our delivery velocity.
* Authentication
** Open discussion on dev-mdn: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/mozilla.dev.mdn/pIC-8Uct1yk/XANbg88SGAAJ
** No extra information so far.

=== Extra items ===

''Questions and discussion topics raised in the remaining time of the meeting'' 

* How to reach the QA team in a more formal way to help with the project?
** Matthew take an action to getting back to the project team to provide more information and explain the whole process.

== Decision made ==

* Bicycle is freezed: No new major bug is allowed in the milestone and it's strongly recommended to add normal bugs only if they block major bugs.

== Actions taken ==

* '''Jeremie:''' Will send a formal warning about the current velocity of the project.
* '''Jeremie:''' Will make sure everybody has commented in the discussion about authentication (specifically Lonnen) and will relaunch the discussion between Marsh and April if necessary.
* '''Matthew:''' Will provide information on how the QA team can help with the project and what kind of formalism is expected.
* '''Jean-Yves:''' Will update Browser Compat table docs on MDN with link and information about doing it so that the importer still can import them.
