<title>Gentoo top-level management structure proposal, DRAFT</title> |
| 82 |
|
|
<section> |

|
|
<title>What is the purpose of this proposal?</title> |
| 84 |
|
|
<body> |
| 85 |
|
|
|
| 86 |
|
|
|
| 87 |
|
|
<p> |
| 88 |
|
|
The purpose of this proposal is to solve chronic management, coordination |
| 89 |
|
|
and communication issues in the Gentoo project. In particular, currently we |
| 90 |
|
|
have no clearly defined top-level management structure, and no official, |
| 91 |
|
|
regular meetings to communicate status updates between developers serving |
| 92 |
|
|
in critical roles. In general, most communication takes place on irc and |
| 93 |
|
|
irregularly via email. There is also little to no accountability, even |
| 94 |
|
|
at a high level, to complete projects on time. |
| 95 |
|
|
</p> |
| 96 |
|
|
|
| 97 |
|
|
|
| 98 |
|
|
<p> |
| 99 |
|
|
Because of this current state of affairs, it is difficult to set goals and |
| 100 |
|
|
track the status of projects. This lack of communication and coordination |
| 101 |
|
|
also makes it difficult for top-level developers to manage their own |
| 102 |
|
|
projects. In addition, we have the other chronic problem of not having |
| 103 |
|
|
clearly-defined roles and scopes of executive decision-making authority for |
| 104 |
|
|
top-level developers, which results in many top-level developers doubting |
| 105 |
|
|
that they even have the authority to manage their own projects and |
| 106 |
|
|
sub-projects. While this has *never* been the intention of top-level |
| 107 |
|
|
developers, it is the unfortunate result of an unstructured development |
| 108 |
|
|
process: no one knows what is going on, and everyone defers to the Chief |
| 109 |
|
|
Architect for all executive decisions. |
| 110 |
|
|
</p> |
| 111 |
|
|
|
| 112 |
|
|
|
| 113 |
|
|
<p> |
| 114 |
|
|
Clearly, a plan is needed to swiftly and permanently address these issues by |
| 115 |
|
|
increasing communication, coordination, and accountability. Roles and scopes |
| 116 |
|
|
of executive decision-making authority need to be defined for top developers |
| 117 |
|
|
so that they have a clear mandate as well as accountability to manage their |
| 118 |
|
|
projects and thus ensure their projects complete their appointed work |
| 119 |
|
|
efficiently and on-schedule. |

<title>How do we fix this?</title> |

|
|
|
| 130 |
|

|
| 131 |
|
|
<p> |
| 132 |
|
|
This proposal suggests fixing this issue by creating an official top-level |
| 133 |
|
|
management structure. This management structure will consist of the chief |
| 134 |
|
|
architect and a group of developers that will be given the title of |
| 135 |
|
|
"Top-level managers." Top-level managers will be accountable for the |
| 136 |
|
|
projects they manage, and be responsible for communicating the status of |
| 137 |
|
|
their projects to the rest of the top-level managers and chief architect, |
| 138 |
|
|
among other things detailed later in this document. |
| 139 |
|
|
</p> |
| 140 |
|
|
|
| 141 |
|
|
|
| 142 |
|
|
<p> All the top-level projects in the Gentoo project will be clearly |
| 143 |
|
|
defined, including with goals, sub-projects, members, roadmap and schedules. |
| 144 |
|
|
The "Hardened Gentoo" page at |
| 145 |
|
|
<uri>http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/hardened/</uri> is an excellent example of |
| 146 |
|
|
such a top-level project definition. </p> |
| 147 |
|
|
|
| 148 |
|
|
|
| 149 |
|
|
<p> |
| 150 |
|
|
Certain executive decision-making authority will be granted to these |
| 151 |
|
|
projects, as agreed upon by the top-level managers and project members. |
| 152 |
|
|
Then, a top-level manager or managers will be officially adopt projects. |
| 153 |
|
|
These managers will be responsible for tracking the status of the project, |
| 154 |
|
|
ensuring that the project meets targets and is generally managed properly. |
| 155 |
|
|
Manager responsibilities are described in detail later in this document. |
| 156 |
|
|
</p> |
| 157 |
|
|
|
| 158 |
|
|
|
| 159 |
|
|
<p> |
| 160 |
|
|
The operational manager of each top-level project will also be responsible |
| 161 |
|
|
to report the status of the project in regular weekly status meetings in |
| 162 |
|
|
which all top-level managers will participate. This regular communication |
| 163 |
|
|
will allow proper coordination, goal-setting and scheduling to take place. |
| 164 |

|
|
For top-level projects, there are currently two possible types of managers. |
| 177 |
|
|
Each project must have at least one manager of each type, although one |
| 178 |
|
|
person may serve both roles. The first type of manager is the operational |
| 179 |
|
|
manager, who is granted executive authority for the day-to-day running of |
| 180 |
|
|
the project. Because this person is directly involved in the day-to-day |
| 181 |
|
|
running of the project, this person has the responsibility to communicate |
| 182 |
|
|
project status to the rest of the top-level management team. |
| 183 |
|
|
</p> |
| 184 |
|
|
|
| 185 |
|
|
|
| 186 |
|
|
<p> |
| 187 |
|
|
The other type of manager is the strategic manager. The tactical manager has |
| 188 |
|
|
executive decision-making authority over the long-term strategic direction |
| 189 |
|
|
of the project. This manager's involvement in the day-to-day operations of |
| 190 |
|
|
the project is limited. Both strategic and operational management are equally |
| 191 |
|
|
important for a successful project. |

|
| 216 |
|
|
<p> |
| 217 |
|
|
1) Constructive, professional communication: All communication should be |
| 218 |
|
|
focused on improving the management of Gentoo projects, should be |
| 219 |
|
|
constructive in nature and should be shared in a friendly, professional |
| 220 |
|
|
manner. |
| 221 |
|
|
</p> |
| 222 |
|
|
|
| 223 |
|
|
|
| 224 |
|
|
<p> |
| 225 |
|
|
2) Accountability to peers: Allow fellow members of this list to hold us |
| 226 |
|
|
accountable to follow-through on projects and meet deadlines. Keep fellow |
| 227 |
|
|
members accountable. |
| 228 |
|

| 229 |
|
|
|
| 230 |
|
|
|
| 231 |
|
|
<p> |
| 232 |
|
|
3) Management of projects: empower managers to have the authority and |
| 233 |
|
|
strategic direction necessary to properly manage thier projects and efforts |
| 234 |
|
|
to ensure projects complete their appointed work on time. |
| 235 |

|
|
|
| 237 |
|
|
|
| 238 |
|
|
<p> |
| 239 |
|
|
4) Results: our expectation is that our efforts, when properly executed, |
| 240 |
|
|
will result in the Gentoo project's ability to meet deadlines, have much |
| 241 |
|
|
better communication and coordination throughout the entire project, higher |
| 242 |
|
|
overall quality and a more positive experience for all. |

Every top-level Gentoo project will have a clearly defined scope, and |
| 254 |
|
|
clearly defined and explicit executive decision-making authority that will |
| 255 |
|
|
be granted to managers of the project to exercise and/or delegate as they |
| 256 |
|
|
see fit. Both the scope and any necessary decision-making authority must be |
| 257 |
|
|
agreed upon by both the chief architect and project members. The scope and |
| 258 |
|
|
executive authority of a project can be expanded over time as required as |
| 259 |
|
|
approved by the top level managers. |
| 260 |
|
|
</p> |

|
|
|
| 262 |
|
|
|
| 263 |
|
|
<p> |
| 264 |
|
|
In addition to decision-making authority, managers have the following |
| 265 |
|
|
responsibilities: |
| 266 |
|
|
</p> |
| 267 |
|
|
|
| 268 |
|
|
<ol> |
| 269 |
|
|
<li>Keep a complete list of all projects and efforts you are managing, |
| 270 |
|
|
and associated gentoo.org project page up-to-date |
| 271 |
|
|
</li> |
| 272 |
|
|
|
| 273 |
|
|
<li> |
| 274 |
|
|
Manage and track the status of these efforts. This includes active |
| 275 |
|
|
direction as well as passive tracking of progress. |
| 276 |
|
|
</li> |
| 277 |
|
|
|
| 278 |
|
|
<li> |
| 279 |
|
|
Define clear goals, roadmaps and timelines (preliminary if necessary) for |
| 280 |
|
|
every effort. |
| 281 |
|
|
</li> |
| 282 |
|
|
|
| 283 |
|
|
<li>Proactively identify efforts that have problems and need help. |
| 284 |
|
|
</li> |
| 285 |
|
|
|
| 286 |
|
|
<li>Ensure that your efforts are completed on-time, or that any efforts that |
| 287 |
|
|
are behind-schedule are reported in a timely manner.</li> |
| 288 |
|
|
|
| 289 |
|
|
<li>Remain focused. Make sure that you are not managing more than you can |
| 290 |
|
|
handle.</li> |
| 291 |
|
|
|
| 292 |
|
|
<li>Fulfill formal communication and coordination responsibilities required by |
| 293 |
|
|
top-level managers (weekly meetings, etc.)</li> |
| 294 |
|
|
|
| 295 |
|
|
<li>Fulfill formal communication and coordination responsibilities required |
| 296 |
|
|
by individual efforts (project meetings, communication with project members, |
| 297 |
|
|
etc.) This is *important* -- our management of projects means that we |
| 298 |
|
|
have the responsibility not only to communicate with our peers but |
| 299 |
|
|
also those who we are managing. This communication should be frequent, |
| 300 |
|
|
have a formal component (planned meetings, official status updates, |
| 301 |
|
|
etc.) and model good management practices to members of our teams. |
| 302 |
|
|
</li> |
| 303 |
|
|
|
| 304 |
|
|
<li> |
| 305 |
|
|
<b>RECURSIVE FUNCTIONALITY</b>: At an appropriate time, implement these management |
| 306 |
|
|
practices for *sub*-projects (define managers, clear sub-project goals, |
| 307 |
|
|
grant executive authority) with you serving as primary authority. |

On Monday evening, we convene on irc for a "live" meeting. |
| 357 |
|
|
The goal of this meeting isn't to provide status updates on our |
| 358 |
|
|
projects, but to work out any outstanding hands-on issues relating to the |
| 359 |
|
|
management of Gentoo Linux. These issues can include: |
| 360 |
|
|
</p> |
| 361 |
|
|
|
| 362 |
|
|
<ol> |
| 363 |
|
|
<li>Assignment of unmanaged projects</li> |
| 364 |
|
|
<li>Resolving critical, time-sensitive problems</li> |
| 365 |
|
|
<li>Trying to "fix" projects that are having trouble staying on-target</li> |
| 366 |
|
|
<li>Sharing new ideas about how to coordinate our efforts better</li> |
| 367 |
|
|
<li>Finding ways to improve our management of projects</li> |
| 368 |
|
|
</ol> |
| 369 |
|
|
|
| 370 |
|
|
<p> |
| 371 |
|
|
The goal of this live IRC chat is to provide a regular forum to resolve |
| 372 |
|
|
tricky issues that benefit from real-time, "live" discussion. Generally, |
| 373 |
|
|
this meeting should last no more than one hour if possible. Generally, |
| 374 |
|
|
new ideas and practices should be discussed in this live meeting, with |
| 375 |
|
|
the list being used for status updates and coordinated resolution of |
| 376 |
|
|
critical issues. |

<note> |
| 381 |
|
|
Inability to attend due to time zone can be addressed by posting |
| 382 |
|
|
the full IRC log to gentoo-managers and allowing non-attending members |
| 383 |
|
|
to post ideas, comments and follow-ups. |

Every Thursday afternoon, every member of this list posts a "status |
| 394 |
|
|
update" email, giving all members a quick, general update on any efforts |
| 395 |
|
|
currently underway. This allows for some fairly rapid feedback for any |
| 396 |
|
|
efforts that were started the previous Monday, and an opportunity to |
| 397 |
|
|
recover from any efforts that have fallen off-target since the previous |
| 398 |
|
|
Monday. |

<p> |
| 408 |
|
|
The goal of this update is to allow any problems with our projects to be |
| 409 |
|
|
discussed and shared before the weekend, so that an adequate solution or |
| 410 |
|
|
interim solution can be found before the weekend. |
