[Koha-devel] Last month before the release

[David Cook]

Thanks, Jonathan. Yeah, I think having a live chat sounds like a plan. Communication is good.

 

Timezones, especially mine, make it tough, but being able to point at documentation for policies and procedures is helpful.

David, if you don't know Jenkins and you are part of the QA team, I guess you are not alone to be lost with our CI structure and it means we have a big problem. Either motivation, or tools or communication.
I am not answering you now but maybe we need to document a bit better how it works for the next release, responsibilize people (asking them to fix what they broke instead of fixing for them) and finally maybe have a live chat beginning of the cycle with RMaints and QA team to (re) explain how it works.
