From befda0d43576b501d7156a8186ab7bbfcab45f3a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: gillespi314 <73313222+gillespi314@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Wed, 21 Jun 2023 12:19:24 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Handbook: Rename emergency drafting to expedited drafting (#12433) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit It seems like we’ve been incorporating “emergency drafting” more frequently into sprint cycles. This totally makes sense given that we want to be an agile, design-driven company. It might be an easy cultural win to instead call it something like “expedited drafting” to soften the dissonance that comes from the sense of being in a constant state of emergency. --- handbook/product/README.md | 12 ++++++------ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/handbook/product/README.md b/handbook/product/README.md index 6c2d9685f0..4a95d85fe9 100644 --- a/handbook/product/README.md +++ b/handbook/product/README.md @@ -48,17 +48,17 @@ Once the draft has been approved: Learn https://fleetdm.com/handbook/company/development-groups#making-changes -### Emergency drafting +### Expedited drafting -Emergency drafting is the revision of drafted changes currently being developed by -the engineering team.
