2017-2018 TAC Retrospective


What did we do well?

  • Leadership communicating clear expectations/objects for work (when that happened).
  • Charges need to be clear.
  • Larger TAC meetings went pretty well.
  • Worth trying working groups again. 
  • Zoom and email address.

What should we have done better?

  • More positive affirmation when sub-teams are on the right track.
  • Be more proactive with sub-team communication.
  • Communication with ArchivesSpace community.
  • Reach out to community for perspective/fill in gaps (e.g., with TechDocs).
  • A lot of absences from groups, even from smaller sub-team groups–would be good to track on this better.
  • New folks: Also set expectations up front to ask people to show up, or let people know, send thoughts, etc. Encourage people to let us know when they just don't have the bandwidth anymore. 
  • For the leadership, moving forward, have sub-teams make time to support those.
  • Clearer chunks/scoping, especially for working group, something that can realistically be done in 6 months.
