Retrospective
What did we do well?
Create centralized tech docs repo and define processes for members and developers to add and update
Utilized member's local experiences and expertise to improve specific areas of the documentation, esp. with plugins and provisioning (e.g., HTTPs, subdomains)
Regular, engaged participation from the whole team in monthly calls
Having Laney participate regularly in calls and help with the repo migration was tremendously helpful
Team size was a good size – not too small, not too big.
Set specific goals in Work Plan early on and continued to refer to them throughout the year.
What could have gone better?
Communicate to broader AS community about tech docs repo and encourage participation beyond TAC
More feedback from TAC and other subteams might have been helpful, especially early on.
Team didn't always have the right or sufficient expertise to address known documentation issues
A clearer charge for the team from TAC might help the group move more quickly.
