#3My favorite part is their cookie policy.

Our lawyer, who is one tough cookie, and is himself obsessed with cookies, wants you to know that Taiga uses cookies. He's a simple-minded man, and requires obvious announcements like this. So here it is: our cookie policy, which you can read more about by clicking here is best summarized by the Cookie Monster himself: "C is for Cookie and Cookie is for me."

#4UI is pretty sweet!
This is always the subjective thing. For me, "easy-to-use drag and drop interface" is normally a deal-killer. The more you make me switch from keyboard to mouse, the less I am going to use the tool.
A project management tool should be able to glean everything it needs to know about what the developers are doing from the source control system. If I have to write a commit message AND update the task in some other system, I'm not likely to find the tool useful.

#5I am sorry if I am too frank here, but the landing page (https://taiga.io/) is just really, really bad.
Not only do the elements not respect their visual boundaries, the whole layout is cluttered, the typography a mess, the color palette is rightout ugly. Shudder.
This is very much a case where less would be so much more. I really do hope the design is not an indicator of what I should expect when actually looking at your codebase.

#6I haven't completed the setup yet, but I'm already super impressed with the project. Providing a Vagrant so you can spool up a local instance of the app is just fantastic. And the docs. Wow, the docs. Directly from the docs:
"Because taiga is still a young project we consider it is currently in beta state."
Kudos to the team, because these docs are well ahead of many projects that are far more mature. Spotted a broken link here or there, but looking very good. Can't wait to try the product.

I liked the color palette, I felt it fit well with the forest theme that it had going on.

#9I don't really understand the difference between kanban vs scrum. I guess both have a list of features to implement.

Hi Taiga here. Thanks for your comments. We'll certainly talk about your thoughts seriously on our next monday morning developer team meeting. Please do loo at our code base (it's all on GitHub) would love to see what you think. Thanks.
