Previous sprint
Security of NDX set up
- Decided not to talk about this in group meeting but rather have a meeting dedicated for it
Closing Old tickets
- Backlog has been reduced by 300 so far
- Mention of creating a list of tickets that need 'verifying'- could do this as part of standup
Pycharm Pro
- Waiting to hear back form Irene regarding getting the whole team set up
Group Mailing Lists
- There are multiple mailing list for exp controls, we should try and make them more concise
- Having a sharepoint mailing list might be useful for letting people e.g summer student access sharepoint (CMS)
- Worth holding a meeting?
Demos
- Muons still need demoing for (JH + SC)
- Should we still provide a demo even though the next release is right around the corner?
- Its important to be interacting with users especially muons (Agile) (KB)
- Demoing to muons whilst demoing winter release could be risky. Better off apologising to group
