Reticketing from #558.

@rohitpaulk @mattbk @aandis Can we build some consensus around our mid-term roadmap? How should we organize our milestones and what should we prioritize?

Alright, working this through w/ @kaguillera IRL over here. First, a few preliminaries ...

Let's use the gratipay.com milestones as the main ones, with subsidiary milestones in other repos indicated as such by their name.

Also, the "Making it Right" blog post from last month is the wider context here. Basically what we're trying to do here is update our milestones to reflect the thinking in that blog post.

Flip-flop: grtp.co/Pivot → Make Widgets 2.0

Okay! So here's what we're thinking over here ...

  1. Bring Back Payroll—but scoped way down to just the Gratipay Team and six ~users.*
  2. Finish cleaning up from the Gratipocalypse:
    1. Finish Team Basics
    2. Make Widgets 2.0
    3. Pivot
  3. Knock payments out of the park:
    1. Tighten Onboarding Flow
    2. Solve Corporate Sponsorship of Open-Source
  4. Knock payroll out of the park:
    1. Implement an AML Program
    2. Expand Payroll Beyond Gratipay

Notes:

  • This is a product roadmap. We've still got to do support, marketing, accounting, security, putting out fires, ...
  • Regarding "additional payin and payout routes"(Radar 54 #571 (comment)), I think those fall somewhere under (3).

@rohitpaulk Where are you at with diversifying payouts? If we get Dwolla (gratipay/gratipay.com#726) done, would that take the pressure off for now until we get around to (3)?

I added gratipay/grtp.co#107 to Make Widgets 2.0 because deployment will be needed at some point.

If these are midterm product goals, what does long-term look like? (4) in particular might not be midterm.

Cool.

Fair point. Probably (3) is beyond the "mid-term" horizon as well.

(... by which I mean, "What are your thoughts?" and not "Where is the code!" :-)

I was able to trim up and close the Bring Back Payroll milestone in the inside.gratipay.com repo.

Done. See activity on #575 and the new product radar at #581.
