会议一直是工作生活的重要组成部分，软件开发也不例外，每天都有各种会议。一种对软件开发至关重要的会议类型，迄今为止尚未得到广泛研究，那就是经常性的软件维护会议：一种定期安排的会议，在此期间，主要产品负责人考虑新出现的问题和已经部署和运行的软件系统的新方向。在本文中，我们描述了我们正在进行的分析的一个主要的医疗保健软件公司的架构委员会的连续10个经常性的维护会议的初步结果。这些结果为进一步分析提供了基础，首先对所发生的各种讨论进行分类。我们提出的设置，我们的分析方法，和初步的意见。一个主要的结果是，讨论的种类比人们最初预期的要多得多。
Meetings have always been a significant part of working life and software development is no exception, with meetings of all kinds taking place daily. One type of meeting that is critical to software development that has not been widely studied to date is the recurring software maintenance meeting: a regularly scheduled meeting during which the primary product leads consider emerging issues and new directions for an already deployed and functioning software system. In this paper, we describe preliminary results of our ongoing analysis of ten consecutive recurring maintenance meetings of the architecture committee of a major healthcare software company. The results provide a foundation for further analysis in terms of first building a categorization of the kinds of discussions that take place. We present the setting, our approach to analysis, and preliminary observations. A primary outcome is that the kinds of discussions are much more varied than one might have initially expected.
