Sprint Process

Focus follows a 2-week sprint cycle with 6-week milestone releases. Dot-releases with bugfixes are released every two weeks.

Issue naming and labels

Labels

• P1: Open engineering issues for current (2-week) sprint
• P2: Remaining open engineering issues for rest of (6-week) milestone

Issue Prefixes

• [meta]: larger issues that need to be broken down, into a [breakdown] issue and issues for its smaller parts. This should include a checklist of all the issues (including the [breakdown] issue)
• [breakdown]: issue to track the work of breaking down a larger bug

Triage - Weekly

All bugs that do not have a P1, P2... label will be triaged every week, and assigned a Priority label (P1, P2, P3...)

Sprint Planning - 2 weeks

Every 2 weeks to decide what will go into the upcoming sprint, i.e., promote P2 issues to P1. After every release, this meeting is for deciding what goes into the upcoming milestone - add issues to the milestone and set them as P2.
