For those interested, related to the Backstage working group - @cnygardtw will be a panelist on Orchestration and GenAI in Financial workflows event hosted by Orkes (organized by @opoupeney) supported by FINOS (particularly in the Panel discussion), which I think could have a lot of relevance to the larger DevOps Automation conversations

Meeting minutes:

• Discussion on #193
  • Problem introduced; multiple banks presented their approach on lifecycle management for programming languages and frameworks; deep dive follow-up to be setup
  • Interest in contributing the approach towards lifecycle management through FINOS so other members can benefit; discussion will be continued in the May meeting
• Discussion on #181
  • Measuring benefits of AI code assistants - survey based approaches as well second-order DevOps metrics (DORA, SPACE etc.)
  • Discussion on difficulty in translating developer productivity/satisfaction from a single tool to financial metrics
  • Discussion on how many code assistant tools are currently providing poor telemetry and how vendors can help for better metrics tracking
