Longhorn Blockers

Former user (Deleted)

  • AI: ThomasS Schedule a retro with Jon Hass regarding the execution of the University of Texas engagement

Corsair BlockersFormer user (Deleted)
  • RackHD channel efforts - issues that stall out and the conversation goes silent - do we want to put in a policy where we "time-out" the defect list because the requester goes silent? Perhaps a 2 cycle on sprints if no activity - it auto-closes.
  • CI/CD stability tasking continues.
  • Blockers - Challenges with Vagrant stability - docs need update?
    • Good open question of how committed we are to Vagrant deployment going forward?

Veyron BlockersAmy Mullins
  • Symphony Workstream for Dell Expansion is taking up a larger bandwidth ask currently - mostly looking like team bringup/ramp (not technical driven)
  • Blocker: CI/CD Pipeline continues to be a major pain point and causing full work blockage at points.
