Board with multiple views

Problem

  • Teams don't have a single location to do team collaboration.
  • Currently, teams can use boards. But they have to either update the board each milestone, or create new separate boards. Furthermore, if a team wanted to see work across multiple milestones, or just multiple scoping, they cannot do so easily without juggling multiple boards.
  • It's not clear for a team member where to look. There could be multiple board links.
  • As a team member, I can look at issue lists to see work scoped to my team. But there's no way to see more detailed, or strategic status of work, all in one location.

Proposed solution

  • Create multiple views in a board.
  • That one board is dedicated and designed for that one team.
  • Each view allows you to have a different set of columns, and a different board config. This gives the maximum flexibility.
  • So for example, the Discussion team could have one view for workflow purposes, i.e. tracking issues as they go from unstarted, in dev, in review, all the way to closed. And then another view to assignees. But the Discussion team would use that one board, because it would be scoped to them.
