Update product groups handbook (#12934)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Updating to reflect the temporary (1 sprint) move of Martin to CX. I
will update again next sprint.

It also seems like we can remove the old development groups language and
call out. What do you think?

I'm also removing the `*` next to names because we weren't indicating
what that meant, which seems unnecessary. It is up to the EM to
understand the capacity of their team.

## Background
When creating software, handoffs between teams or contributors are one of the most common sources of miscommunication and waste. Like [GitLab](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RxqS2nR5K0vN6DbgaBw7SEgpPLi0Kr9jXNGzpORT-OY/edit#heading=h.7sfw1n9c1i2t), Fleet uses product groups to minimize handoffs and maximize iteration and efficiency in the way we build the product.

> Product groups were formerly known as "development groups" at Fleet. The term "product group" is more common across the industry, so in January 2023, Fleet switched to using it.
## What are product groups?
Fleet organizes product development efforts into separate, cross-functional product groups that include members from Design, Engineering, Quality, and Product. These product groups are organized by business goal, and designed to operate in parallel.
