@dealako we discussed on the CloudOps call this morning and want to review this some more before pushing out. The handoff matrix especially given the small team may need some tweaks (i.e. @AlanSherman as the POC for all platform engineering triage).

…ails for applications

11-21: Verify missing Product Owners and Application Engineers.

The Product Owner column is empty for all applications, and three applications (EasyCLA, Crowdfunding, LFX Security) have "?" listed for Application Engineer. Given the PR comment from grigarr about the handoff matrix needing tweaks due to the small team, please confirm whether:

  1. Product Owner assignments are intentionally omitted or still pending
  2. The "?" entries for Application Engineers should be resolved before merging

Based on PR comments, this aligns with concerns raised about the matrix requiring adjustment.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🔴 Critical

Critical: Title not renamed to "Hand Off Matrix" as stated in PR objectives.

The PR title and description explicitly state the document should be renamed from "Responsibility Matrix" to "Hand Off Matrix," but the header still shows "Responsibility Matrix."

+## Hand Off Matrix

‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

The following table shows the assigned roles for each application. Each role serves as a key point of contact for their respective domain - Product Owners for business requirements and stakeholder needs, Application Engineers for technical development, and Platform Engineers for infrastructure and deployment concerns.

The individuals listed in this matrix serve as the **initial point of contact** for their respective applications and domains. This means they are the go-to person for questions, coordination, and initial triage - but not necessarily the person who will resolve every issue or implement every feature.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🔴 Critical

Fix line length violations causing pipeline failure.

Multiple lines exceed the 120-character limit specified in the coding guidelines, causing the Markdown lint pipeline to fail. Lines 5, 7, 9, and 14-20 all violate MD013/line-length.

♻️ Proposed fixes

For the introductory paragraphs (lines 5-7), break into multiple lines:

-The following table shows the assigned roles for each application. Each role serves as a key point of contact for their respective domain - Product Owners for business requirements and stakeholder needs, Application Engineers for technical development, and Platform Engineers for infrastructure and deployment concerns.

For the table, you have two options:

Option 1: Break the Jira Project URLs onto separate lines within table cells (using <br> tags or line breaks if supported).

Option 2: Use reference-style links to shorten the URLs in the table:
