Kanban

Estimated epics: 875. StoryPoints: 3500

Estimated completed StoryPoints: 1467

Estimated complete: 42%

The meaning of the above is:

A task represents a dialog, a menu-item that is to be done.

A task has a number called StoryPoint from 0 to 4. (0%, 1=25%, 2=50%, 3=75%, 4=100%). Where 0% = nothing done, to 5 = 100% done. Nothing to do further.

Each task results in a score between 0 to 4.

A half complete task results in a score of 2.

A fully complete task results in a score of 4.

A somewhat done task results in a score of 3. If a group of tasks was somewhat done, say, 10 tasks * 3 would result in 30 points, hence even through many things were done, the low score is attributed to the difficulty of the tasks and time-consuming research or trying to figure out how to implement the feature.

Forum using Discord (DONE)
We may make an option to host an Ecco-Pro forum since several people expressed interest. There's Ecco-Magic forums which is pretty quiet. (WON'T DO)
Beta - not sure when. Maybe January 2019 or as early as December 2018, depending on how much time major features will need to be added or features needed to be re-worked. (IN-PROGRESS)
We're not sure if we'll support Windows Faxing since Delrina WinFax had been discontinued 10 years ago. Won't be done.(WONTDO)
Not sure if StoryServer will support PABX Caller-ID since few Windows laptops have LTE or embedded modems. Most users would prefer Caller-ID data from their Android or iOS Phone log. - (WONTDO) - This is done using XTNDconnect or MyPhoneExplorer#
OLE… won't be supported.  (Won't do)
Embedded browser (other than Chrome, Safari) (Won't do)
A limited closed alpha was started in 2018 Q4. Many small issues fixed. (InProgress)

This is a 2019 feature list feature https://goo.gl/forms/CUP7zbu6ehbhu69B3
