Items from last retrospective:

Standing in the conference room at standup

• people do whatever they want

CO2 monitor

• nothing yet, but getting warmer so less of an issue. FA to ask estates - not sure if done yet?

Concerns regarding recording hotfixes

Some tickets have been created for this now.

DB truncation

there is a ticket proposed for this to create/use mysql instance

Barriers for instrument demos

decided to leave them in the end brought up larger issue of picking up higher priority tickets

• this sprint we have done this more, so just need to keep aware of it

Items from this retrospective:

We should set up manual squish test rota

• ticket created to see which ones can actually be automated. ticket has been proposed.
• we should create tickets each time we do this to track progress and be transparent.

Flash reviews hanging round

• perhaps we should bring them up at standup on mondays to get them through
• should add this on to the monday reviews (project board etc.)
• add to list of things to check at standup on a monday and assign people
• should we use a different way of telling about flash reviews? have to be careful about making it too heavyweight.
• checking at standup requires little extra effort, we should do this. ACTION add this to standup list

Are we getting a benefit from discussing points?

• we should properly revisit this time when KVLB is here.

What information needs to be shared so that others can lead planning?

• not 100% confident in leading the PI boards - it has been explained but still not sure.
• do we need to not look at the PI boards - they are project planning but perhaps we need to just know how many points we have to play with
• discuss this again when KVLB is here.
