- Meet daily for 30 mins max to air vexing programming issues
- Initiate a cooperative dialog towards resolving or exploring the issues
- Identify issues that may need help beyond the group.
- The ground rules are also simple
- Each programmer will come to the meeting armed with one issue on which he or she needs constructive input.
- Each day there is a different pre-identified leader who owns the session. This person will ask each programmer for a 1 minute (max) summary of the issue. Go around the ring until all are aired.
- Group votes on each issue to hear more that day on each particular issue or to defer. Majority is in. Ties are called by the lead. Remainder of time is spent discussing accepted items. (e.g. If all are accepted you have 5 mins per issue max: 5 people x 5 issues = 25 mins. If none are in then the lead's issue is automatically in and you spend all the time on his/her issue. (That leaves 5 mins for first summaries and voting)
- An issue brought to a meeting a third time must be addressed.
- Group can (and is encouraged) to arrange additional time outside the meeting to solve tougher problems. It may also forward issues to the supervisors for additional help.
- Day's lead gives 5 min phone summary or 5 sentence email summary to Kirk or Tom who will relay to the other.
