Issue Audit — opsdev.nz (2026-08-02)

Date: 2026-08-02

Repo: smunz/opsdev.nz (GitLab)

Statuses: P1.express — doing (active), postponed (deferred to date), canceled (close)

An audit of all open GitLab issues in the public OpsDev.nz repo, conducted as part of the Sprint 9 retro. OpsDev.nz is the public delivery surface — modules, worklog, and the collective-facing site.

Summary

6 open issues. 1 canceled (#10). 5 doing (active RAMP + events + volunteer work), 1 postponed (module development). Four issues sit under the RAMP Discovery milestone (extended to end of August); two under the new SFD Wellington 2026 milestone.

The production OC bootstrap (MR !21, private ledger repo) and remaining July reconciliation time have been logged to #13 (11h total). #13 is now closed; the August reconciliation follow-up is #15.

Observations

RAMP Discovery milestone extended to Aug 31. Four of the seven open issues (numbers 8, 9, 14, 15) sit under RAMP Discovery. The architecture, importer, staging validation, and production cut-in all shipped in Sprint 9. Issue 13 (July reconciliation) closed with 11h logged — OC bootstrap time captured, follow-up in issue 15. The milestone remains active for August reconciliation and architecture write-up.

SFD Wellington 2026 milestone created (due Sep 19). Issue 12 (event planning) and issue 11 (volunteer landing page) moved here from RAMP Discovery and no milestone respectively. Events and volunteer work now have their own planning home, separate from RAMP.

Volunteer engagement is real. Issue 11 has 3 notes and an external contributor with frontend/Node.js skills from the DevOpsNZ Slack community. This is exactly the kind of collective-acceptance signal we've been waiting for. Don't let it go cold.

Labels map to agent roles. Issue 14 now carries opsarc (architecture). The convention is forming: opsdev for delivery, opsarc for design, and eventually opsfin / opssec / opslaw as those agents get work items.

Done this sprint. Issue 10 (octodns-metaname domain registration, 8h) and issue 13 (July reconciliation and OC bootstrap, 11h) were closed. Two shipped features, 19h between them.
