  • Define Responsibilities as a B2G Release Owner
  • Release note revamp
  • Aurora revamp - new name, new audience, new purpose, new process
  • Working with Marketing/PR to stop using version numbers in public-facing press
  • Engagement on nightly -- we can help shape it, help set the bar & get preffable
  • How do we get into developers minds early and get them to work with us early
  • communications (over-communicating, sending out status, risks, bugs that need escalation)
  • having a consistent presentation from Relman, even though we split out B2G & Desktop/Mobile
  • what are the overlapping parts of these focuses and what is not shared?
  • what should and shouldn't be shared between two teams?
  • high level breakout of 2014 quarterly goals
  • break out of expectations for each team we interact with (esp. useful for new hires)
  • ...what else?
  • Engage with B2G partners to ensure quality
  • Predictability in release content
  • Engaging global teams
  • Successful dogfooding
  • Update rolodex, make a list of commonly NI? people (outside of module owners)

Schedule

We have the Espresso room booked each day, we will attend minimal other meetings so we can spend the most time together, we will have lunch brought in most days but will go out for at least one lunch and also have a group dinner on one of the nights (probably Monday, maybe informally on other nights)
