11.8 Configure retrospective

This is an asynchronous retrospective for the 11.8 release, following the process described at https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/engineering/management/team-retrospectives/.

This issue is private (confidential) to the Configure team, plus anyone else who worked with the team during 11.8, to ensure everyone feels comfortable sharing freely. On 2019-02-19, the day of the engineering-wide 11.8 Retrospective, the issue will be opened up to the public, as long as everyone is comfortable with this. You're free to redact any comments that contain information that you'd like to stay private before that date.

Please look at back at your experiences working on this release, ask yourself 👍 what went well this release?, 👎 what didn’t go well this release?, and 📈 what can we improve going forward?, and honestly describe your thoughts and feelings below.

For each point you want to raise, please create a new discussion with the relevant emoji, so that others can weigh in with their perspectives, and so that we can easily discuss any follow-up action items in-line.

If there is anything you are not comfortable sharing here, please message your manager directly. Note, however, that 'Emotions are not only allowed in retrospectives, they should be encouraged', so we'd love to hear from you here if possible.
