I had a closer look at fluxday and it seems geared towards big entities with a rigid structure. Departments that have teams that have people? Quite entreprise-y, not really GNOME-y. It may work at your workplace, but I question how it fits with us and our lack of resource that you rightfully pinpointed above. > For instance, GNOME releases would be a lot more easier if we have all > that mapped out with tasks already set. > I am not entirely convinced the problem of not creating a check list comes from the lack of tooling. > Same logic applies to kanban boards (someone recently said we should >> use gitlab because it has kanban boards). >> > > We could look at it, but gitlab doesn't really deal well with engagement > and marketing I would reckon right? > I was not the one suggesting it and I am not convinced either, but I’m not convinced by fluxday either. > I'm willing to look at existing things we have already..

We have tasks in nextcloud (which can be used with GNOME ToDo by the way) and we have Gitlab. That’s already two ways this could work with no extra set up. People could be split into two test groups and both platforms could be tried out at the same time. After the trial phase, feedback from each group would be gathered and from there we could pick one or decide none of the two is a good fit. -- Alexandre Franke GNOME Hacker & Foundation Director
