Hey Mike:
I'm very familiar with Scrum, but new to Lean & KANBAN. I think I read that with KANBAN there are no iterations any more nor tasks and you just move stories through the process. In the latest V1 release (correct me if I'm wrong), the story board still requires iterations and I think the assumption is made that people still put in tasks as well.
Can you help reconcile this?
Thanks,
Rene

The sprint is still required... even with the new Kanban board. You can use traditional agile iterations and create a Scrum-ban methodology or go "iterationless" by basically creating a really long iteration (same as release duration maybe?)

Thanks, Mike. In the real-life implementations of this, do people still use tasks with KANBAN stories?
