This page attempts to outline the development team's priorities in broad strokes -- this priority list should serve as a general guideline for our team to decide what to work on when the weekly dev meetings don't provide enough guidance.

For Winter 2017, the following priorities exist for the dev team, in order of most important to least important:

Ongoing tasks

  1. Site stability and performance issues: If the site is misbehaving or not performing as it should, the dev team should focus on resolving those issues as the first priority.
  2. ModBot/Nagios: If ModBot or Nagios sends periodic emails about an issue, the dev team should address these issues quickly. ModBot fixes may not require hot-fixes, but they should be addressed as soon as possible.

Focus areas

MusicBrainz/CAA

  1. SOLR: Finish debugging and deploy new search infrastructure
  2. Site performance: Use insights from analytics to prioritize tasks for site performance improvements
