Good evening,
Thankyou to everyone who provided feedback regarding what they would like to see regarding communication. The most common theme that I am hearing is consistent updates regarding what has been worked on the past week. I think that I can accomplish that without deviating too far from my current approach. I will strive to make a post summarizing the activities of the past week every weekend. There is a lot of information that bounces around slack, that is not posted officially on the forum, and I see no reason not to post it on the forum.
Collin, TM or myself will plan to cross post these weekly (or occasionally bi weekly) progress reports to BCT as well as the blog. Links to the blog will be tweeted by the main @ProjectRadium twitter account
Regarding twitter, I will try to make a stronger effort to tweet general project related information from the main project account, and use @JJ12880 for my personal development bellyaching general crypto related tweets.
A few people suggested setting SMART goals, which is an excellent strategy for some aspects of the project, but I cant apply them to the research and coding. Coding is guaranteed to not work correctly the first and second time, so applying a timed deadline to code development usually produces a under tested and buggy product. However, I will talk with the management team and see if there are other places where we can apply SMART effectively.
In regards to a road-map or other prospective plan, I am still very hesitant to publish anything that would create expectations. I could make a list of things that I have been thinking about, and that MAY reach development, if that is what people would want. I am still concerned that that may create unreasonable expectations. I have some features I would like to add to a SmartChain 3.0 protocol, but they still need research and testing before I know how viable they are. Once I start working on researching them or testing them, they will show up in the weekly updates.
As today is Friday, I will post a summary of everything that has been being worked on the past few weeks. I will try my best to get that out by the end of the weekend.
JJ
