Sprint planning for "Improve contributor experience"
Meeting proposal info
- Title: Sprint planning for "Improve contributor experience"
- Type: it's complicated
Summary
We agreed at end of 2020 to have some sprints (I think two weeks long?) dedicated to the problem of improving the contributor experience.
It would be good to have a meeting where we lay out the specific focus areas for such sprints, and figure out when to hold them (in terms of when we expect stakeholders and experts to have the most time available to contribute).

We had the meeting today. I should have announced its scheduling back when we scheduled it. But I can still make up for that, maybe, by posting about what we determined during the meeting itself.
