UX Coverage for Daniel Fosco for 2022-01-14 & 2022-01-17

    • Closed Issue created by Daniel Fosco @dfosco

    Intent

    This issue describes how broader group and team members are facilitating a members of the UX Department to take meaningful time away from work. The intent is that the folks aren't required to "catch-up" before and after taking a well-deserved vacation.

    :handshake: Responsibilities

    List the priorities that the responsible backups need to cover. Backups can be a peer, your manager, or a peer/manager in a different department (e.g. product manager).

    Responsibilities include reviewing merge requests, responding to UX related questions, providing feedback related to inflight development work, or responding to Slack inquiries.

    Priority Responsibility Link Primary backup DRI Secondary backup DRI
    HIGH Reviewing Merge Requests MRs with Daniel as reviewer @katiemacoy @rayana
    MEDIUM Respond to (urgent) team requests/questions in Slack #ux_ci-cd or #s_release @katiemacoy @rayana

    :muscle: Coverage Tasks

    Ongoing tasks that need to be covered will be listed under workflow::design in Release team's Plan board. Those might require responding to UX-related questions and comments.

    Total MR Reviews expected during coverage period: 2

    Task Type DRI Notes

    :blue_car: Parked tasks

    Larger responsibilities that aren't moving forward until I return can be found on Release's 14.7 Planning issue or plan board. They have been scheduled with this PTO in mind, and are expected to be finished within the milestone regardless.

    The MRs below are parked, and won't be worked on this milestone (14.7):
