Several developments in localization and translation:
We started working on new languages for some new regions- Madagascar and Micronesia
Done:
Created localization projects for Malagasy (Madagascar), Chuukese, Palauan, Pohnpeian and Yapese (All these for Micronesia/ Guam)
Added certified translators to these projects.
Doing:
Orienting the newly added translators and helping them where needed
Some of the Micronesian languages are custom languages with i18n codes that are not commonly used, checking to see how integration works with these languages
Blocked:
Not really blocked, but I need more insight into the roadmap or timeline for any Micronesia/Micronesia-Guam related rollout so that I can plan better and follow up and work accordingly with the translators in time for any release.
This is the general overview of the various languages and their status of completion (Slovak, Tagalog, Haitian Creole are a 100% done and Spanish (PR), Russian, Polish and Italian have good coverage)

B:
not a blocker, but I’d like to talk to “friendlies” to help inform research plan/interview guide, specifically looking to have an informal chat today with anyone who is currently living (ideally) or working/studying on a university campus to get a head start. I know we have a bunch of students in the Slack community but I don’t know best place to reach out to them. NOTE: this is separate from a larger blast Carolyn (lead researcher) plans to send out today to wider Slack community to solicit interviewees. Basically, I don’t want to confuse people with two requests and want a back channel of sorts to get 1 or 2 informal convos. any ideas?
xian: please invite me into any airtables you set up!
Brian Ng @xian I’m actually not invited to it yet cc @Spectra
Emma Heizer: @Gretchen Anderson would any of your students be open to talking with Brian today? Are they currently on or off campus?
Spectra @xian @Brad Peters is the prodops person (slated to be) assigned to that squad, following prodops sync. I'm free today, so think that should happen sooner rather than later.
xian sounds good to me! what does that entail (next steps)?
John Kane
I was out sick yesterday. Getting myself back up to speed today.

@Jennifer Schnidman I know there was originally a “news” or “resources” section in the app and it was pulled out; I don’t see anything of the nature on the fast follow list; I’m working thru what that could look like for a Uni and am wondering if y’all have put any thought into that yet?
@Stephen two things we’ve prioritized as “must have” in the Uni MVP (linked above) are client config-oriented specifically Equip PathCheck to setup a university as a health authority and Limit a private institution's governance based on their geographic domain. the latter which I believe you’ve seen the PRD for. MVP reqs are still a moving target, but I feel fairly confident we will want to work thru those e.g. Vassar and TCU have expressed a desire to set themselves up as a health department so as to not rely on their overwhelmed local HD and have more control and responsiveness wrt testing, contract tracing, isolation, etc. maybe we should sync on this one sometime today

@Brian Ng You're correct that News/Resources is not on the fast follow list - I believe it was being considered as part of the "coldstart" discovery theme, but I haven't been involved in those discovery efforts
Y:
GPS dev team made major headway in improving iOS location tracking accuracy, new staging build has been provided to Guam for further testing :tada:
T:
Confirm language switching bug fixed, coordinate with @Alpita and @Diarmid Mackenzie on any remaining localization copy issues to prepare for GPS hotfix release to app stores. This release will re-introduce Kreyol and Spanish (and fix a minor copy issue)
Confirm exposure notification screens are wired up and ready for testing
Backlog grooming and prep for next week's sprint

B: none
FYI that I am going to be offline starting tomorrow afternoon through next Wednesday morning. This week's GPS/Places sprint wraps up tomorrow, and the team will be prepared to start next week's sprint on Monday as usual.
Stephen Roger:
@Brian Ng - I'll review the doc you posted and grab time with you later today.
