New module review meeting

[gregdek]

We continue to have a not-very-good process for accepting new modules into Extras.

We seemed to agree at the contributor summit that what we needed was a standing meeting to review new modules according to the current guidelines. Now we need to drive that.

[mckerrj]

let's meet next week when I'm there? I want to work on this quickly.

[gregdek]

Next week is too late. :) Let's meet this week. I really think it's as simple as "pick a time every week, commit one or two core guys for an hour or two, walk through the modules from oldest to newest" to start. It doesn't need to be complicated; we already have clear guidelines. We just need regular predictable review. Once we have a few weeks under our belt, that will give us a velocity, and then we'll be able give contributors a rough idea of how long they can expect to wait.

[mckerrj]

ok. Put something on. Tuesday afternoon, I'm driving to Boston, but other than that should be ok.

[gregdek]

Moving forward. From IRC:

#info newtmckerr will have us a name of a (possibly rotating) facilitator from the core team this week
#info first new module triage meeting will be next week

[gregdek]

Still waiting on @mckerrj for a time and a person.
