Kanban v2

You can see an example of this new plugin in action here on meta now:

Something I’m wondering about as we get closer to publicizing this more widely is the name.

  • kanban
    This is what we’ve been calling it going all the way back to the theme component that’s been out for some time. It feels a bit jargon-y to me, but on the other hand, it’s a relatively well known term at this point.

  • boards
    Many products refer to similar feature sets simply as “boards”. we do this ourselves currently to refer to the boards themselves within the plugin. perhaps the plugin itself should just be named “boards”? on the other hand, in the forum world, “boards” often refer to “message boards”. would that be a poor choice in our case?

  • something else?
    Perhaps you have another idea about what to call this. If so, let us know!

We’ll decide soon either way…
