I wrote a blogpost a few months ago on this. I was facing the exact same problems, http://mytechbooks.blogspot.in/2016/04/the-everything-syndro...

If it helps :-)

EDIT: i also wrote an app for it! In Go, a self hosted webapp which has a cli version to interact with the server, it might not be the trello killer, but it works for me
