I've used other systems where I could use other fields for the columns. Does anyone know if there's a way - maybe via plugin - to use other fields as column? I'm specifically trying to use Points as my column, to make it easier to compare stories to past work and do the estimating. -- Drew

Columns are story points. Previous sprint would all be in their columns, ranked backlog at the left. We could look at the top card on the backlog and look across the previous sprint until we saw something similar size and drop the card there. Made estimating very easy. -- Drew

Columns are based upon global statuses and can be moved between columns. Regards, -scott Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson.

We did something creative with swimlanes at one point for estimating (grouping by intended release) but it wasn't as useful as we though it would be and abandoned it after two sprints. Wade.
