If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
A
My
name
is
bartek
and
I'm
the
director
of
engineering
for
growth,
and
I
will
be
outlining
what
to
expect
in
the
group
conversation
which
will
be
moderated
by
gitlab's
vp
of
development
christopher
I'm
going
to
focus
specifically
on
top
of
mind
for
christopher,
which
includes
okr
updates
and
some
of
the
things
that
we've
been
doing
open
development.
A
So,
firstly,
you're
checking
on
our
okrs
we're
halfway
through
the
quarter,
and
so
these
are
the
three
key
ones
that
we're
running
run
infrastructure
more
efficiently,
which
is
our
iacv
objective,
increase
dog,
fooding
performance
and
productivity,
which
is
our
product
objective
and
expand
the
capabilities
of
our
team.
Our
team
objective,
although
these
are
showing
at
zero
percent
they're,
actually
the
key
results
underneath
them
have
had
progress,
so
these
will
get
rolled
up
as
we
get
closer
towards
the
end
of
the
quarter.
A
There's
a
few
that
I
wanted
to
call
out
here.
I
thought
this
one
running
at
10
is
our
project
planning
and
portfolio
management?
Key
result?
That's
aiming
to
dog
food,
our
plan
capabilities
into
the
way
that
we
manage
development
within
gitlab.com.
A
A
A
A
A
A
Main
boxing
is
interesting
for
for
anyone
who
hasn't
been
part
of
that.
So
it's
a
it's
part
of
our
talented
development
program
and
we
complete
performance
potential,
matrix
assessments
on
all
of
our
reports.
This
has
happened
at
the
executive
level
and
is
now
happening
as
part
of
the
direct
at
the
director
level
as
well.
Basically,
we
we
identify
individuals
within
the
team
that
are
able
to
take
on
additional
responsibilities
at
performance
versus
potential.
So
have
a
look
at
that
handbook
page.
A
If
you're
interested
in
more
details
there
I
see,
gearing
ratios,
have
a
lot
of
feedback
from
many
people
within
development
and
there's
a
working
group.
That's
been
established
to
discuss
that
further.
You
can
see
there
the
slide
channel
and
google
doc
if
you
want
to
be
more
involved
or
contributing
to
that
as
well.
A
List
of
working
groups
includes
a
couple
of
new
ones
that
may
be
of
interest
to
people
within
development,
so
specifically,
there's
one
around
commercial
and
licensing,
which
is
the
growth
team
and
development
involved
with
sales
and
product,
and
that
aims
to
improve
our
sales
efficiency
for
new
accounts
and
renewals
and
not
listed
here
yet.
But
there's
a
merge
request.
That's
linked
further
within
the
group
conversation
document
which
talks
about
an
experimentation
working
group
that
looks
at
how
we
run.
We
aim
to
run
experiments
in
gitlab
in
the
future.
A
We
recently
did
a
realignment
of
staff
from
monitor
apm
to
fulfillment,
telemetry
and
verify
within
that
issue.
There's
also
a
link
to
a
retrospective
issue
so
for
those
that
participate
in
that
process.
Please
add
your
thoughts
and
comments
there,
so
we
can
continue
to
improve
our
process
and
update
the
handbook.
Accordingly,
it's
been
some
management
changes
in
op
ci
cd,
which
you
can
have
a
look
at
this
mode
request,
shows
the
team
yaml
changes
that
took
place
so
there's
been
some
reporting
changes
with
primarily
sam
goldstein
and
see
those
there.
A
A
We
have
an
update
to
the
handbook
that
changes
our
development
practices
to
consider
building
new
services
with
kubernetes
in
mind.
As
part
of
that
there's
an
interesting
discussion,
an
issue
that's
opened
up
a
few
days
ago
around
the
mr
slicing
approach
as
part
of
our
iteration
value,
so,
whether
we
horizontally
slice
or
vertically
slice
the
specific
work
and
how
we
get
things
out
there.
This
is
definitely
well
worth
a
read.
So
please
have
a
look
at
that
one
as
well
and
finally,
there's
some
conversations.
A
There's
a
company-wide
discussion
on
using
performance
factors
in
compensation
and
deprecating
copper
groups,
and
so
there's
an
issue.
That's
opened,
you
can
jump
into
and
discuss
as
well.
Quite
a
lot
of
is
a
lot
of
it
is
developed
and
focused
and
there's
been
a
lot
of
input
from
folks
in
development
as
well.
So
I'd
encourage
you
to
have
a
look
at
that
and
those
are
the
top
of
mind
issues
I
wanted
to
highlight
those
in
this
introductory
video.
