Jira Cloud: Releasing multi-project old tickets from Kanban board without spamming developer’s inboxes
What to do, if you want to release all older tickets and don't bother developers with, say, 450 updates on every ticket that fixVersion has been set to each one of them in their inbox? The answer is to swap notification scheme for related projects while releasing.
Throughput vs Story Points velocity
So we've been measuring story points estimate and throughput through the last 5 sprints, and they really do show approximately similar results 🙂 makes you think why do have an additional story points layer on top of the simple throughput? 🙂 Just as Vasco Duarte told 🙂
Anatomy of Distributed Team: Workflows, Agility, Communication – my talk from Atlassian Summit 2018
It's been an extremely fruitful Atlassian Summit 2018Â in Barcelona! Main purpose was to speak about Distributed Teams, however the atmosphere was so cheerful and friendly, that it was more like a fireside chat, even given that my speech was the closing one.

Recently I hosted Minsk Atlassian User Group, where I shared our experience on migrating to Stride and gave the analogy between Stride, and Russian word 'Stradai' (-> eng.: 'Suffer'). I'll explain the analogy later. Hence the 'Napalm Death' song 'Suffer' joke on the first slide 🙂
Given that a lot of people use Telegram as a corporate messenger, and given all of the telegram-blocking happening in Russia currently, it's pretty relevant to write about alternatives. We at SkuVault migrated due to the need of user control, but migration experience is relevant to many other teams.
