2.3 Release Planning and CSV Export

2.3 shifts to Friday

Background export replaces timeout

Marketing and customers updated

Overview

The team discussed the 2.3 release, focusing on a CSV export timeout affecting large customer accounts. They agreed to move the release from Wednesday to Friday so the export can be included using a background job. Sam will take over checkout lazy-loading work, while Priya will coordinate customer and marketing communications.

Transcript

[00:00:04] Maya: Okay, sprint planning. The big question is the 2.3 release. We told customers Wednesday. Daniel, where are we?

[00:00:15] Daniel: Not great. The CSV export works, but it times out on accounts with more than about fifty thousand orders. I found it Friday.

[00:00:29] Maya: How many customers are that big?

[00:00:34] Priya: Eleven. I checked this morning. But two of them are the ones who asked for the export in the first place, Harbor Foods and Lumen.

[00:00:48] Daniel: The real fix is a background job that emails a link. That's about three days of work.

[00:00:59] Sam: I'd still ship Wednesday and put the export behind a flag. Everything else in 2.3 is ready, and marketing has the announcement scheduled.

[00:01:13] Priya: I disagree. If we ship without export, the announcement's headline feature is missing. We'd be announcing something people can't use.

[00:01:27] Sam: We could announce the other things and do export later.

[00:01:34] Priya: Then Harbor Foods hears about 2.3 and asks where the thing they were promised is. I'd rather be two days late than have that call.

[00:01:48] Maya: Daniel, if you start the background job today, is Friday realistic?

[00:01:56] Daniel: Friday is realistic if I drop the lazy-loading work on checkout. Mind you, that one's also a customer complaint.

[00:02:09] Sam: I can take the lazy-loading. It's mostly images. I'd have it done by Thursday.

[00:02:20] Maya: Okay. Decision: 2.3 moves from Wednesday to Friday, with the export included. Sam, you were arguing the other way, can you live with that?

[00:02:33] Sam: Yes, if marketing can move the announcement. That's my only concern.

[00:02:41] Priya: I'll talk to marketing today, and I'll tell Harbor Foods and Lumen the new date myself.

[00:02:52] Maya: Good. Daniel, background export by Thursday night so we have a day to test?

[00:03:00] Daniel: Thursday night, yes. One thing though: the email link needs to expire. Are we thinking twenty-four hours or seven days?

[00:03:14] Priya: Depends on how finance teams use it. They might come back to it at the end of the week.

[00:03:25] Sam: There's also a security angle. These files have customer addresses in them.

[00:03:34] Maya: We won't solve that now. Priya, can you ask Harbor Foods how they'd use it? Daniel, make it a setting for now, default seven days.

[00:03:47] Daniel: Works for me.

[00:03:52] Maya: Who tests on Friday morning?

[00:03:57] Sam: I will, once the lazy-loading is in. I'll test with the big staging account.

[00:04:06] Maya: Great. And if testing fails Friday morning, we need to know what we do. Do we slip again or ship with the flag?

[00:04:18] Priya: I don't want to decide that today. Let's look at what actually fails.

[00:04:27] Maya: Fine, we'll decide Friday at ten. That's everything for 2.3. Thanks everyone.
