Description
Overview
Github has a new Projects/Kanban/spreadsheet tool that rolled out in mid-2022. It replaces their (now) "Classic" Projects kanbans and adds new features that would be useful to FOLA.
We investigated this new tool and it sounded useful to us, however, one item (of several) blocks us from migrating: Notes
#1329 (comment)
These notes are currently used to hold lists of reference links for different teams (i.e. Design team has links to our Figma documents). Unfortunately, the new Projects tool doesn't support 'notes', so we'll have to stop using them.
To enable us to migrate in the future, we need to figure out what to do with our column of markdown 'notes', and do it.
Possible solution
We can migrate these notes to either a (public) wiki page or to a private Google Docs document.
Wiki:
- Public. Anyone can see but not necessarily open the links listed on it.
- Gives FOLA team members experience with editing a wiki
- May be frustrating learning a new tool just to make these reference links available
Google Doc:
- Private to FOLA team members
- Familiar and easy to edit, comment.
Action Items
- Figure out where to move these notes. Public wiki, private Google Doc? What's easiest for editing and use?
- Do the migration
- Note to Hack for LA that we've removed a blocker and are ready to convert to the new Projects tool
