I'm not sure what sort of project-specific documentation we think we need. Each project team can set up its own board or worklist for a given series. The "documentation" just needs to point to that thing, right? Each team may also decide to use a set of tags, and those would need to be documented, but that's no different from launchpad. > > For anyone trying to follow multiple projects at a strategic level (i.e. > > not down in the weeds day to day, but checking in weekly or monthly) to see > > what's planned, what's deferred, and what's completed for either upcoming > > milestones or looking back to see if something did or did not get finished, > > a consistent cross-project UI of some kind is essential. > Agreed.

If we have a large number of projects who agree to use the tool a certain way, that seems good, regardless of whether any specific teams are included in the group. Let the outliers document their processes, if they end up being significantly different. > > For example, with virtually no insider involvement with Nova, I was able to > > locate this view of what's going on for the Rocky series: > > https://launchpad.net/nova/rocky > > How would I locate that same information for a project in Storyboard > > without constructing my own custom worklist or finding an insider to share > > their worklist with me? > > > __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
