== Stuff to do every week =
* Let's check the 0.4.1 release status page. See https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/teams/NetworkTeam/CoreTorR... (This page automatically shows the latest trac ticket status.)
* Let's check and update the roadmap. What's done, and what's coming up? We're using a kanban board: https://dip.torproject.org/torproject/core/tor/boards
* Check reviewer assignments! How reviews from last week worked? Any blocker?
Here are the outstanding reviews, oldest first, including sbws
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/query?status=needs_review&compo...
== Reminders ==
* Remember to "/me status: foo" at least once daily. * Remember that our current code reviews should be done by end-of-week. * Make sure you are in touch with everybody with whom you are doing work for the next releases.
* Remember to fill up the 'actual point' field when you close a ticket. We need those to calculate velocity.
* Check other's people call for help in their entries.
* When you are overloaded, it is ok to say "no" to things. * And it is ok to reschedule things.

We are moving the kanban board from storm into https://dip.torproject.org/torproject/core/tor/boards . This will help lead a plan for migration into dip.torproject.org.
