Questions

[edit]
  • We've considered options for looking at coming beta. There's added overhead. Is this something we really need?
    • Can we review why we need to know what is going to be in the next beta?
  • Column for [Action Item] Phab tasks (need a place to triage)?
    • Tag would be weirdly redundant


Action Items

    • Ping Keegan (subject lines for subqueues?)
