Agenda

• Are we prioritizing work effectively? (For us, and the rest of the community keeping an eye on our progress)
  • Are we looking at the current Milestone to decide what to work on?
  • Does the Milestone page get updated often enough?
  • Matt: I’d like to build a new habit of reviewing our on-deck work together each week. Will Milestones suit that purpose? Or should we have a super-streamlined Project board with a column of issues to pick from? And perhaps do releases more regularly?
    • Example: JupyterBook project board
  • Martin: Totally agree. Project board would feel better. Nice UI to keep track of what’s happening. Get rid of current milestone.
• Starting a team compass - what do you want to see there?
  • Link to the project board
  • Calendar!

Status reports

• Arjun: Symbology bugfixes!
• Arjun: Autosave changes to layer properties
• Arjun: Bugfix to vectortile layers to support symbology

Requests for help

• Can we apply graduated and categorized symbology to vectortile layers? https://github.com/geojupyter/jupytergis/issues/704
  • Matt: Trying to do a proof of concept, struggling.
    • Arjun: Try in QGIS to test the dataset.
