Tuesday Sept 29 Participants: * Ernest * Georgia * Nicole * Sumana Status & blockers * Pradyun: better than last week. * has had a few calls with Bernard re pip output. Productive. just not enough hours in the day * TP & Paul and Pradyun having discussions about performance, reducing how much we hit the network. Pradyun will probably make a rough draft of what he & Bernard are discussing. * TODO: actually adding flag for rollout. Including filing a flag for it. -- DONE https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/8937 * Nicole: * been continuing to conduct user interviews. blocker: no-shows :( not unusual. Also: had an interview where we talked about `pip wheel` and would like to better understand (talk with Pradyun). * now promoting the survey on pip install. numbers are good - response rate and promoting/outreach seems to be working! "buy a feature" - waded into Reddit, may not do that again. * Sumana: disclaimer that she doesn't know about efficacy of Reddit, Instagram, Facebook, Hacker News * Nicole will continue wading into Reddit. * Pradyun suggests: a big Python Discord (pythondiscord.com) * Georgia suggests: newsletter & blog post generated a lot of attention -- let's also look back through tweets, see whether a particular person RTing helped a lot. Let's collect meta-info on what works well. * Nicole: to collect in UX notes about effective UX research. * TODO: Georgia to give Sumana access to the resolver survey (needs to check on permissions) -- eventually DONE via Bernard sharing in another medium * TODO: Pradyun to look at the resolver survey a few times a week to check for actual bugs that need followup -- in progress * Georgia: * juggling a lot. Working on giving Ernest tweets in a useful way. May just give Ernest a weekly tweet to send. Ernest says that is okay. * Also, Georgia to send contract amendment to extend to Dec. * training for maintainers: * resources/playbook that say: when you are designing a new feature, here's * how to design those well * how to get feedback * how to publicize things * Sumana: * Wrapping up the edutainment video * Want to have discussion about 20.3 release + the resolver in it. * Specifically, the performance. * Blockers: none, other than the video -- DONE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4GQCBBsuNU * Ernest * need Pradyun's invoice Tomorrow: to discuss: performance and go/no-go decision on new resolver as default in 20.3
