This is sort of just a funny anecdote...
This project hasn't been a walk in the park. But I think the hardest part is behind us... so I just wanted to share a few highlights... so, these are some highlights from the many commit messages that Avi and I submitted throughout the past few months... (play music)...
The last thing... I learned that some of you heard my talk at Midcamp a few weeks ago, and that it might have hurt or offended some of you... if that's true, I understand, and I owe you an apology. My only goal was to get those who attended to feel something; to do that, I wanted to be honest. What I didn't consider was that it might undervalue the efforts of others in the department, or unintentionally focus on what we fixed instead of how we fixed it. I'm aware that the talk received a positive response on the day I gave it, and I know several attendees who took positive things away from it... but I failed to consider the impact that it might have on our own organization. So— to the Front End Devs— Ryan, Dora, Jack— I'm sorry. I didn't mean to offend you by undervaluing your contributions to the process. And to everyone else who helped, who gave feedback, who helped solidify the PM and other process so that the design process could be put into place... I'm sorry. It wasn't my intention to ignore your contributions, or to paint the hard work we do in such a negative light.
I don't expect any response to this— but I wanted to clear the air. And that's it. Thanks.
