I thought I would send this out so everyone can follow our
progress
on the Cosmo planning. In order to set the stage for
developing a
product roadmap, I have been putting together a wiki page
that will
track the inventory of "stickies" - high-level
features (identified
so far) we want to implement in Cosmo (UI and back-end
work). PLEASE
NOTE: We realize that in certain cases we have only been
thinking
about Beta goals and in other instances we have been
thinking more
long term The goal is to use this to build a roadmap for
Beta and
beyond.

CosmoStickiePlanning20060828
I am getting this info from a number of sources...
+ The planning exercise we did during the Cosmo sprint for
the Casual
Collaborator.
+ Hosted service and Admin requirements - discussions with
Jared.
+ A set of other features which we want to have in Cosmo -
based on a
list we brainstormed with BCM during the sprint.
A few important points about this wiki page....
+ It's NOT done yet which is why you will see sections
missing and
features that have no "stickie" estimates. I am
sending it out now so
anyone interested can follow along with the progress.
+ None of these have have been prioritized yet. This step is
simply
about gathering all the info and noting dependencies.
+ The "stickie" swags are approximate...just a
best guess. Our
granularity is that 1 stickie = 2 weeks so even a feature
that takes
a day will be estimated as 1 stickie for planning purposes.
+ We know there is probably stuff missing.
Next steps...
+ The PPD team will work on prioritizing the casual
collaborator
features and bucketing them in stages.
+ Ted with support from the Cosmo team will draft the list
of Cosmo
items with suggestions for priorities and stickie estimates.
There
will be dialog with PPD regarding the target user groups for
these
features (happening on the list now).
+ Get "stickie" estimates for some of the other
hosted service
requirements.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Cheers,
Sheila
