The CNM Technology Board (hereinafter, the Board) is the part of the CNM Digital Team that approves or disapproves its strategy. The CNM IT Office supports the Board.
Contents
Organization
Key members
- Gary Ihar -- gary
- Michael Confoy -- michaelc
Meetings
Hybrid bi-weekly
Decisions
Majority; two weeks for a decision
Methodologies
- Main wikipage: CNM Agile
- We need someone to own tasks. If you own it and can do it all, great. If you will need more than one person on it, that should be noted once we have the tasks in the wiki or via response to this if necessary. For example, MichaelC is looking for someone that would like to do some of the work under his direction for the training task as it can be very useful learning experience as a software evaluation using a bake off is a common practice.
Deciding on ...
... team's culture
... team's endeavors
- The Board approves or disapproves the strategy for the development of CNM Digital known as CNM Digital Transformation.
... team's services
- The Board defines the portfolio of the services included into CNM Digital and the technology behind the services.
... the technology
- The Board defines the CNM Cloud, which is the bundle of technology that supports CNM Digital.
Endeavors
New meeting model
- The Board would like to determine mechanism for virtual meetings using some free outsourced or on-premises open-source software.
Backlog
- Main wikipage: CNM Digital (requirements)
- The Board would like to create backlog document or a set of documents on wiki with these tasks, who is lead on task and link to work on task.
- Ken is willing to take that task. For that he should be able to complete initial draft during a 1-hour working session on a Tuesday night. (If necessary, it could be done with much less time as a copy-paste from this email, but he would hope to have better quality than that.)
- This backlog document shall contain relevant user stories, so the task is to begin the process of creating project requirements in the form of user stories on one or more wiki pages. Each user story has a user story card which has a notes section with status information. Here is some information about that. The backlog email is a list of short descriptions of tasks or projects with some status information. That is a good place for us to start. Frequently Agile projects or Hybrid-Agile projects have task cards and/or story-cards describing the tasks to be completed. The tasks are often given as user stories in a certain form. (Sometimes these are on actual large index cards or post-it notes, but often they are on electronic task cards in a system like JIRA or a wiki or some other project management software system.)
- So requirements are often actually "Agile Stories" describing the desired outcome at very high level in the form of completing the blanks in this sentence: "As a [blank <type-of-user>] I want [blank <some-goal-or-objective>] so that [blank <benefit-or-value>]". Example from government website: "As an Editor, I want a way to review content before it is published so that I can assure it is optimized with correct grammar and tone." [Retrieved from public website https://tech.gsa.gov/guides/user_story_example/ ]. All this is simpler when you see it than when you try to understand it from a descriptive paragraph.
