Videoteam/Kanboard

The videoteam project can be browsed at https://kanban.debian.net/board/3
This page documents our use of the tool to improve sync between team members.

[edit] Accounts
Accounts are created manually and may be requested in #debconf-video on IRC (OFTC network).
[edit] Columns
Project columns are used as follows:
- Unassigned: tasks that require a hero
- Not yet started: tasks that are assigned but not yet started
- In progress: people are doing their thing
- Completed: drag-drop finished tasks in there
[edit] Creating a task
- Pick a short, descriptive title
- Write out all relevant details in the description section
- Pick an appropriate category (colors are automatically assigned according to categories)
- Set a due date, even if not obvious
Other task parameters such as complexity are mostly unused.
[edit] Assignment
Please consider assigning the new task to yourself.
It's not required that the assignee do all the actual work involved: he or she can simply act as an overseer and ensure the task is completed in a timely fashion.
[edit] Tags
The following tags are in use:
- sprint1: tasks which we aim to have finished by the end of our first sprint
- sprint2: tasks which we aim to have finished by the end of our first sprint
- dc17: tasks that ought to be done before DC17
[edit] Supplementing
Please use the following features to provide additional context and/or information about tasks:
- File attachements
- Comments
- Sub-tasks
- External links
- Internal links (eg. between tasks)
[edit] Notifications
Project notifications are available through RSS. The URL is listed on the project overview page.
RSS notifications are also sent to #debconf-video using a modified python-rss2irc.
A true IRC plugin for Kanboard is planned.
