## Release retrospective and kickoff
### Retrospective
After each release, we have a retrospective call where we discuss what went well,
what went wrong, and what we can improve for the next release. The
[retrospective notes] are public and you are invited to comment on them.
If you're interested, you can even join the
[retrospective call][retro-kickoff-call], on the first working day after the
22nd at 6pm CET / 9am PST.
### Kickoff
Before working on the next release, we have a
kickoff call to explain what we expect to ship in the next release. The
[kickoff notes] are public and you are invited to comment on them.
If you're interested, you can even join the [kickoff call][retro-kickoff-call],
on the first working day after the 7th at 6pm CET / 9am PST..
