Copy of 2018-2019 Tech Docs Retrospective

Things we did well

• Changed the way API documentation is generated to make it easier to contribute and provide examples in different languages.

• Formalized tech-docs repository as official location of technical documentation.

• Began working on outreach efforts - solicited suggestions from TAC, listserv; working on compiling a developer list to better focus outreach.

• Basically accomplished - or set foundations for accomplishing - goals on work plan.

Things we could improve upon

• Could have taken advantage of more opportunities to point to existing documentation in listserv responses, or to create new documentation based on listserv questions

• Did not get as much feedback about documentation improvements as we expected - need more effective ways of reaching out.

• Did not have enough time to devote to creating added-value documentation - videos, blog posts, etc.
