This thread is depressing me. We use all these fancy tools at $work
and I'm not sure they are much of an improvement over informal
processes run by capable people. I regularly advocate, pretty much
to the wind, to use JIRA less and email *more*. The main benefit of
the system, various reports to corporate taskmasters, seems pretty
much irrelevant here. If you're advocating introduction of new
tooling with all the associated processes and complexities, can you
point to specific breakdowns in the project and exactly how said
tooling would have helped the situation?
