We are thinking about a way to achieve this without loosing the nice manual sorting. We're hesitant to go for clicking on headers to sort by that field as the interaction with drag'n'drop is complex. iTuens does it, but it's not very intuitive when drag'n'drop works and when it doesnt. Perhaps a "Sort stories by Business-Value button" is actually the right aproach to ease this? (Feedback welcomed) I do however feel that using the Business-Value for sorting is actually abusing it, as the business-value shouldn't change if you want to re-order stories so while it robs you of some functionality I think that's actually a change for the better to reflect the real business value in that field. > Aside from this one change I very much like the changes that were made > in 1.3. I especially like the new burndown chart. Thanks! It's always nice to hear that!
