### Sprint meetings Recurring slot: **16:00–17:00 London** · 17:00–18:00 CEST (Vienna, Berlin, Amsterdam) · 15:00–16:00 UTC. The slot follows **London time** — @pdjohnson chairs. The UK and EU change clocks on the same dates, so the London :left_right_arrow: Central European offset is always one hour and those local times never move; only the UTC value shifts (15:00 UTC under BST, 16:00 UTC under GMT — the switch is 25 October 2026). | Meeting | Date | UTC | |---------|------|-----| | Sprint 8 Review & Sprint 9 Planning | 03.08.2026 | 15:00–16:00 | | Retro of Sprint 8 — #229+s | 10.08.2026 | 15:00–16:00 | ### Tickets for sprint Add tickets at the start of the sprint. As you make progress and complete a ticket please mark as done with the checkbox. Each item uses a `#NNN+s` reference, so GitLab renders the live title and open/closed status badge automatically. > **Sprint 8 → 9 carry-over completed at the sprint change (2026-08-03).** All unfinished Sprint 8 tickets were moved into Sprint 9 during the Review & Planning meeting; this meta now lists the full Sprint 9 set, grouped by work area. Unassigned/ready work can still be moved to the [Tickets ready to be worked on](https://git.drupalcode.org/project/ai_initiative_marketing/-/milestones/10) milestone. > > **Refreshed mid-sprint (2026-08-06):** synced against the milestone — added #306– #311 (third-round / new-contact media outreach) and unchecked #258, which is still open (Status: To do). > > **Checkbox sync (2026-08-17, 15:00 UTC):** ticked #176, #258, #306, #307, #308, #309, #310 and #311 (all closed today). Ticked #316, which closed as **obsolete** rather than delivered. Unticked #221 — it is still open and has moved to Sprint 10. > > **Sprint change (2026-08-17):** #5 and #273 moved to [Tickets ready to be worked on](https://git.drupalcode.org/project/ai_initiative_marketing/-/milestones/10) — deprioritised, not carried into Sprint 10. (#7 was already there.) Ticked #275, completed this sprint. > > **Pre-sprint-change sync (2026-08-14):** re-checked every box against the live issue state. Ticked #17, #196, #229 and #271 (all closed); unticked #176, which is open again and in review. Note #297 is listed here but carries **no milestone**, so it does not show on the Sprint 9 board. ### General * [ ] #201+s @slawrence10 @elena_rl ### DrupalCon Rotterdam * [ ] [Create tickets from the retro Miro board for DrupalCon Rotterdam](https://git.drupalcode.org/project/ai_initiative_marketing/-/work_items/301) @pdjohnson * [ ] [DrupalCon Rotterdam META](https://git.drupalcode.org/project/ai_initiative_marketing/-/work_items/297) @pdjohnson ### Media relations // Pritam Prasun * [x] #144+s @palakosl * [x] #173+s * [x] #176+s @palakosl * [ ] #187+s @wouters_frederik * [ ] #214+s @palakosl * [x] #215+s @palakosl * [x] #256+s @palakosl * [x] #257+s @palakosl * [x] #258+s @palakosl * [ ] #269+s @palakosl * [x] #306+s @palakosl * [x] #307+s @palakosl * [x] #308+s @palakosl * [x] #309+s @palakosl * [x] #310+s @palakosl * [x] #311+s @palakosl ### Social Media // Amber Henry * [x] #219+s @amber.henry @mfernanda.silva * [x] #220+s @amber.henry @mfernanda.silva * [ ] #221+s — still open, moved to Sprint 10 * [ ] #222+s * [x] #271+s @amber.henry * [x] #284+s @amber.henry * [x] #285+s @amber.henry * [x] #286+s @amber.henry * [x] #287+s @amber.henry ### Events // Paul Johnson and Matthew Saunders * [ ] #96+s @slawrence10 * [ ] #123+s @mfernanda.silva * [ ] #147+s @mfernanda.silva @pdjohnson * [ ] #263+s @pdjohnson * [ ] #265+s @pdjohnson * [x] #267+s @hestenet @pdjohnson * [ ] #280+s * [ ] #283+s @mfernanda.silva * [ ] #288+s @ZoochaWill @slawrence10 @dan-at-zoocha.com * [ ] #291+s @jmsaunders @pdjohnson ### Webinars and Podcasts // Paul Johnson and Matthew Saunders * [x] #186+s @pdjohnson @james_tillotson * [ ] #264+s @pdjohnson @rgladden * [ ] #266+s @pdjohnson @james.h * [ ] #295+s @pdjohnson ### Sales enablement // James Tillotson * [x] #17+s @james_tillotson ### Case Studies // Rosie Gladden * [ ] #103+s @rgladden * [ ] #151+s @rgladden * [ ] #189+s @rgladden * [ ] #190+s @rgladden * [ ] #193+s @ZoochaWill @rgladden * [ ] #270+s @rgladden ### Existing Capabilities // TBD * [ ] #9+s @dunx * [ ] #16+s @dunx * [ ] #274+s @pdjohnson ### Brand Strategy // Dan Stratton * [ ] #102+s @ZoochaWill @dan-at-zoocha.com ### Content production * [ ] #208+s @mandclu * [ ] #216+s @wouters_frederik * [x] #262+s @pdjohnson * [x] #292+s * [ ] #294+s @ZoochaWill * [ ] [New Marketing Site: Drupal AI Product Page](https://git.drupalcode.org/project/ai_initiative_marketing/-/work_items/281) ### Project Management // Jeremy Chinquist * [ ] #161+s @jjchinquist * [x] #229+s * [x] #275+s @pdjohnson * [ ] #278+s @jjchinquist * [x] #316+s @jjchinquist — closed as obsolete ### Demos // Dan Lemon * [ ] #10+s @dan2k3k4 * [ ] #24+s @dan2k3k4 * [ ] #231+s @dan2k3k4 * [ ] #233+s @dan2k3k4 * [ ] #25+s @dan2k3k4 * [ ] #236+s @dan2k3k4 * [ ] #26+s @dan2k3k4 * [ ] #239+s @dan2k3k4 * [ ] #27+s @dan2k3k4 * [ ] #242+s @dan2k3k4 * [ ] #28+s @dan2k3k4 * [ ] #245+s @dan2k3k4 * [ ] #29+s @dan2k3k4 * [ ] #248+s @dan2k3k4 * [x] #196+s @breidert --- _Drafted with the assistance of AI (Claude Code / Opus 4.8).
