Today we have released first preview of TP 2.0 (still Minima :) login/pwd: admin/admin). (TP 2.0 is the next generation of our agile project management software TargetProcess). We want to get some positive and negative feedback before moving forward, since in its current state TP provides most base functionality and look & feel.

What we want to stress in this release? Several things. First of all, drag and drop iteration planning. Now it is possible to assign user stories and bugs on iterations as well as assign user stories, tasks and bugs on developers.

Second feature that will appear in TP 2.0 is development process customization. In current release it is possible to create, let's say, "Simplified" process and turn on/off Time Tracking, Bug Tracking and Requirement practices for it. In this case project with Simplified process will have very simple UI. No bugs, no features, no time records, only releases, iterations, user stories and tasks. True agility :)

The third considerable feature is customizable dashboard. Now user can customize personal workspace and see exactly what she want.

Here is how development going thus far.
