For people wanting to play with Kanban boards:
* There are two kanban apps available in sandstorm: Scrumblr and Wekan.
* I have created one document of each, available for tests and
playgrounds:
Test Scrumblr: http://deb.li/testscrum
Test Wekan : http://deb.li/testwekan
* I have created two more documents, available for DebConf16 (ideally,
we would use only one of them, since both are kanban boards)
Kanban Scrumblr Board for DebConf16
http://deb.li/dc16scrum
Wekan Kanban for DebConf16
http://deb.li/dc16wekan
If you need more/other "documents", just tell, and I will create them
ASAP. Or, you can go to https://storm.debian.net/ and ask for an
invitation and create and share yourselves.
For Gantt/project management, I know openproj and libreplan. I played
with both them some time ago, just to know if I could recommend them
to people that use Microsoft Project in the Uni. I would say they are
enough good, but I cannot give an opinion about using Gantt for actual
project management, I have no experience on that.
