Northstar Questions

Questions

  • Need clearer expectations from tickets and phases of the project.
    • Grooming meetings with entire team?
    • Defining "done" for each ticket as a group
  • Is this project ready for SDK developers?
    • Don't know which APIs
    • Setting up clientId for card and PayPal not figured out
    • 3DS provider??
    • Product level questions not answered
    • Should we be making product decisions?
  • What is expected from us at this point in the project?
  • Why is JS not having these issues?
  • Weird meeting schedule. Can we consolidate meeting times?
    • Meetings scattered makes it hard to get head down dev time

Solution Ideas

  • More product direction
    • Rahul providing this info? Nate? Rajul?
    • Grooming meetings - asking for clarity for each ticket
  • Consolidated pairs for northstar
    • Too many folks on northstar without enough work for everyone
    • Less cooks in the kitchen at once
    • Less brain power wasted for folks to context switch b/w projects
  • Merging teams - everyone is able to work on all SDKs (BT, PP, Northstar)
    • Knowledge sharing now on the BT & Native XO SDK will be helpful for constructing Northstar together
    • Also, we'll all likely need to be useful in each SDK at some point
    • Gets everyone used to consistent pairing rotations
