Quarterly Workflow Tidying

[stefaniebutland]

A 2.5-hr time slot to focus on things we let might let slide when we're busy focusing on project-level work. Open to anyone.

Maybe treat it like coworking, where each person says what they want to tidy.

Things we can tidy

• delete repos used for testing; consider archiving inactive repos like 2023-agu-planning
• triage issues: close things that are resolved; add labels
• create reusable alt text resources: have one location for images we use > twice; keep images and alt text in same place; gather existing alt txt and write for others
  • logos, flywheel, editorial image, cloud cookbook
• reflect on things in your workflows that feel clunky; choose one and take first step
• triage/ archive Slack channels - past champions cohorts, inactive channels
