#152You can actually view the live Trello Development board itself here: https://trello.com/board/trello-development/4d5ea62fd76aa113... I'm impressed they're so transparent with their development process.

#153Still, as long as it stays free or even inexpensive it might be my goto tool for task management. I'll need to try it. I like that it works on my iPad without much fuss.

#154Looks pretty awesome in my 5 min trial. Back of the card is very well done. This will could go way beyond the software crowd to a general organization app..I just hope this thing scales well and they clarify their upload limits and such. Edit 1: I tried their iPhone app and it's very far from their web interface - took me 6-7 clicks just to get to a checklist for one of the items. It's commendable that they have a ap…
One of the devs whipped the iPhone app up in essentially 2 weeks after some of our earlier plans with a contractor fell through. It was literally meant to be there on launch read-only. We know it's got a ways to go, but given the time constraints it was the best we could do (IMHO it was better than anything I thought we'd be able to do... Justin really cranked on it)

Perhaps you guys could push out an update that more clearly communicates that it's for viewing only? I searched the whole app looking for how to edit things before slowly coming to realize that it wasn't possible.
Love it though. The web UI is great and the iPhone client looks promising.

#156Damn this is pretty similar to the direction my app Wallboardr is taking, except status columns aren't customisable yet. Any thoughts on comparison folks? http://wallboardr.com

#159Earlier quoted context omitted.
Thanks for the nice words! I'm not sure about IE8, but, this being a new product, I specifically told the team not to worry about any non-current browsers. By the time this product hits its stride, IE14 will be shipping.
Too bad XP users will still be stuck with IE8 ;)

#160I have seen people mention project management a bunch, but the view really isn't about viewing what people are doing. In fact items that don't have people assigned to them still show up. The 10 foot view isn't even that good as they all squares and text. At a glance you can not tell what changed recently, what is late etc.
I had to really grimace when it showed the internal team that was using it and one of the stacks was "bugs" and it had the most number of items and was scrollable. ugg Does that scale to thousands of open bugs (or how about just 50)?
So either this is for all of those people who have never discovered the overview page of their bug tracker or maybe it is trying an experiment to see if the process of creating a bug tracker for a project is too difficult and here you just click "new project" and blam done and later on you export it to a real bug tracker... Maybe this is all just tricking users into using a bug tracker without them knowing?
Anyone get the same feeling?
