A pretty shameless rip-off of Trello, yet it makes sense. I'm just about to set up collaboration using Bitbucket and Trello* and there's too much manual linking involved.

At the moment it looks very v0.1 though. I'll wait for the release version.

'Raise a bug' ->

http://www.bitbucketcards.com/samtardif/bitbucket-wallboard

-> 'Error: Couldn't find that repository.'

* (Of course, if Fog Creek hosted git repos I never would have been a BB user in the first place..)

Rather than a rip-off I see it as an indicator that the software development industry is moving away from list-based issue tracking to visualizing the development process in a more intuitive and transparent way (cards that move through different stages) which imho makes a ton of sense.

We've built https://www.blossom.io for exactly that reason. But there are many tools out there that use this visualization or a hybrid of lists and cards, so from my POV definitely not a rip-off, just a natural evolution over the last few years.

Jira has had the card view for a while, it's more likely to be inspired by that.

I think Agile had it first...

[lucian1900]

My point is that an Attlasian employee would be likely to be inspired by an Attlasian product.

[anthonyb]

They're all inspired by Agile, and the way it avoids large specs in favour of lighter processes like ... index cards, and moving them around on a board.

I'm not at Fog Creek anymore, but in talking to my former colleagues, it sounds like you won't have to be a BB user much longer, if you don't want to.

Ya and trello shamelessly ripped of the idea from sticky post-its...who got their idea from the gutenberg press.
