Thanks, Mark. I was hoping that would be the answer!

Make expanded window color same as collapsed one.

When I expand a "done" task (one in green) the background color is yellow ... same as the "undone" tasks. This sometimes confuses me, at least when I haven't had enough coffee yet. Any chance we can get the background color of an expanded task to be same as what ever the status bar is (green for done, blue for icebox, etc...)

Do points get counted twice if a story is "undone"?

If I have accepted a story, then (ooops!) discover a problem with it, can I simply change the status from "done" to "rejected" (or "restart") so that it get sent back to be worked again? If I were to do that, would the "points" for the story get tracked twice, or do they get "backed out" of the various totals properly?

Not able reset estimate via csv import

when I import a csv file to update existing stories in the icebox, it does not allow me to reset the "estimate" filed to "unestimated" if the story already has an estimate

How do I manage sprint content?

Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't understand how to control the stories that go into a sprint. I have 2 basic questions. First, we have our group divided roughly in half, and we run 2 sprints at once ... is there any way to track those separately? And secondly, if I have started some tasks but it becomes apparent that they wont all get done in the current 2week sprint, how do I "drop" items out of the sprint? It seems like started tasks just "pile up". In our world, if something does not get done in a sprint (ie is dropped), it goes back on the backlog and can get reproritized and may not occur in the next sprint. But it seems like in Tracker they just automatically get dumped into the next sprint?? Am I not doing something correctly?

I might as well get in the action too... can you send a copy to rogerandsue@mail.com ?

Thanks!

I second this ... not just for the out of town idea but also because we have developers working on separate but related features and should be aware of what goes on in work.
Similarly, we may have multiple people who request a feature, and we want them all to be notified when things get changed/commented on/etc.

How can I get lots of backlog items into BananaScrum?

Is there any way to get a backlog into BananaScrum without typing them in? (I have over 200 that I really don't want to retype!)

roger replied on February 19, 2009 18:09 to the idea "CSV Import of a backlog" in Code Sprinters:

So here is something that is not clear to me using the agile methods...This is a key feature for me as a user... and I see it is in the backlog ... but I have no clue as to whether or when it might be updated. I have had my customers tell me the same thing... How does a customer get any feeling about "when" a feature might be coming as opposed to just "its in the backlog"?

roger replied on December 10, 2008 17:36 to the idea "CSV Import of a backlog" in Code Sprinters:

Any idea on when this might be implemented? I am anxious to try this tool, but can't really see doing it until I can import a file with my existing backlog...

roger replied on November 14, 2008 15:48 to the idea "CSV Import of a backlog" in Code Sprinters:

I think this is essential... I have too many backlog items to import them by hand.
