"bbcards is requesting read and write access to your public and private repositories."

Scary. Very, very scary message.

Well, how else would you do it?

I'd at least say that it is a product of Atlassian (and not some random project by unknown authors) and that it won't touch my repositories, just my issues.

A pretty shameless rip-off of Trello, yet it makes sense. I'm just about to set up collaboration using Bitbucket and Trello* and there's too much manual linking involved.

At the moment it looks very v0.1 though. I'll wait for the release version.

'Raise a bug' ->

-> 'Error: Couldn't find that repository.'

* (Of course, if Fog Creek hosted git repos I never would have been a BB user in the first place..)

Rather than a rip-off I see it as an indicator that the software development industry is moving away from list-based issue tracking to visualizing the development process in a more intuitive and transparent way (cards that move through different stages) which imho makes a ton of sense.

We've built https://www.blossom.io for exactly that reason. But there are many tools out there that use this visualization or a hybrid of lists and cards, so from my POV definitely not a rip-off, just a natural evolution over the last few years.

Jira has had the card view for a while, it's more likely to be inspired by that.

I think Agile had it first...

My point is that an Attlasian employee would be likely to be inspired by an Attlasian product.

They're all inspired by Agile, and the way it avoids large specs in favour of lighter processes like ... index cards, and moving them around on a board.

I'm not at Fog Creek anymore, but in talking to my former colleagues, it sounds like you won't have to be a BB user much longer, if you don't want to.

Ya and trello shamelessly ripped of the idea from sticky post-its...who got their idea from the gutenberg press.

I don't see all the projects I'm following in the dashboard. I'm the owner of all of them. Some public and some private ones show up. Can't wait for this to get these few little wrinkles worked out.

OK, now I see what it is - I needed to enable issue tracking on the other projects (which makes sense, as the cards are essentially a UI over their existing issue tracking).

YouTrack from jetbrains is going the same way - putting a wrapper around their existing issue tracking - http://www.jetbrains.com/youtrack/agile_project_management/i...

I've started on something similar for GitHub... See https://airport-r7.appspot.com/madrobby/zepto

Just yesterday I was searching for an app or something to interface with my BB issues as I found the issue tracker interface extremely clumsy (Update issue status -> save -> reload issue list -> click next issue).

This looks like exactly what is needed. I think I'm being cemented in as a serious BitBucket advocate.

This was started as a 20% project by @samtardif - so awesome to see this ship :)

This is something that was missing and it's really cruical.

One `usability` thing: it will be good for example to have a button in Bitbucket which will open Cards in new tab in for a given project.

I like the idea but I can't use it because I need to be able to manage more than 50 issues per version.
