[teampractices] Thesis project: Phragile - sprint overviews for Phabricator

[S Page]

Hello Tobi,

Most teams at the foundation are only now figuring out how to use the
Sprint extension after the performance problem got fixed (hooray!). Then

I'm eager to know what needs of WMDE's teams aren't met by the Sprint
extension and how the Phragile project will address them. This is the
place, "a list for discussing team practices" :)

 If the new tool is better for WMF teams' needs but WMF Operations is
unwilling to maintain and administer another PHP application, we'll be sad.
So I share Erik's concern.

I don't think this announcement changes anything for WMF teams, the
recommendation remains as in
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Phabricator/Project_management : add '§' to
any project where you want to enter story points, and create a sprint
project with start and end dates for any sprint for which you want a
burndown chart.

Thanks for working on these tools!
