Hi,
following the discussion in
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T322756
yesterday I made some changes to the cloud-services-team Phabricator
boards.
The main change is that most tasks have been moved from the
"cloud-services-team (Kanban)" milestone board [1] to the
"cloud-services-team" project board [2]. Columns have retained similar
names, but there is a new column "FY2022/2023-Q3" that includes tasks
that have been prioritized or are being actively worked on in the
current quarter.
Clicking on the title of that column will take you to a "zoomed in"
view of those tasks [3] where they are divided into 4 columns:
Backlog, In progress, Blocked and Done.
I went through the tasks that were in the "Doing" column of the old
kanban board, moved the ones that had recent activity to "In progress"
in the Q3 board, and moved back to "Inbox" the tasks that didn't seem
to have any recent activity. Feel free to move tasks to a more
appropriate column if you're planning to work on them soon.
While these boards are primarily used by members of the WMCS team, I
imagine they might be checked by people outside the team as well, so
I'm sending a quick heads-up to this wider list. This isn't likely to
be the final state of the boards, but I hope that iterating on their
shape will lead us to a place where the boards are more useful for
people inside and outside of the team.
If you have any comments or concerns, please leave a comment in the
follow-up task at
