Holiday modes

During the summer and around Christmas, we have what we call holiday modes. These are week-long periods without dedicated focus sessions, allowing us to self-organize and let work flow more organically. This approach accommodates vacation schedules and provides a refreshing change of pace.

Some suggestions for what to do during holiday modes:

• Pick up an unassigned initiative from nais/system – an open PR without a milestone – or help out on an area's board where one exists. If you're unsure what to do, ask the anchor of the area you're interested in.
• Work on things you've put off during focus periods.
• Write a blog post.
• Check with your team if there's something you can help out with.
