Iteration Plan for May 2019 #74143
Description
This plan captures our work in the second half of May. This is a 1.5-week "mini iteration". We will ship our May Update in early June.
Early May, we successfully released the preview of our Remote Development extensions. After that came //build and then we had our first Team Week. May 13-18, the whole team came together in Redmond, USA to discuss and work together. We enjoyed every moment of it. Now, we need to get back into our usual rhythm of shipping a new version of VS Code at the beginning of each month. To do that as quickly as possible, we only focus on bugs and paper-cuts for a short period.
Endgame
- May 28, 2019: Endgame begins
- May 31, 2019: Endgame done
The endgame details for this iteration are tracked in #74412.
