Any community member can update this page! Help us keep this page up-to-date and add what you know.
What is a Squad? A squad is a group of community members working autonomously on specific, discrete solutions to a shared problem(s). Our strongly recommended guideline is that Squads should have 2 or more Implementing Organizations working on them, as we have found this consistently yields (1) more generalizable, re-useable solutions, and (2) successfully co-maintained code. Further history on the OpenMRS Squad model here.
(For things that are still "really nice to know and should be visible at some level even though there is not quite 2 implementing orgs working on it", we'll track these as Epics here too, within reason.)
