The Sherpa Project

I’ve been banging my head against the wall for the past couple of years trying to find a way to use index cards during the typical Release, Iteration, and Daily Planning cycles of various projects. The problem is that I’ve been working on distributed teams.
I find it hard to function without a Wall Gantt. Without a doubt, I think it’s the best way to plan for a sprint or iteration.

I’m glad to say that a couple of weeks ago we found an alternative that works for distributed Wall Gantt functionality. If you are in the same situation, check out CardMeeting. CardMeeting is my new favorite tool. I’m not sure how I functioned for so long without it.

I still prefer real cards, but the capabilities of CardMeeting are very good and the feel of the application is as close as you can get to the real thing.
