[18:25:53] jaufrecht: my intuition, which seems to have been backed up by the results of one experiment, are that the sequence of tasks in a milestone column in the parent board is entirely unrelated to any positioning of those tasks within the milestone board [19:21:20] 06Team-Practices, 10TPG-2017Q1-Identify-Common-Pain, 10TPG-Essential-Functions, 07Epic: [EPIC] Provide support to people in design-related roles - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T137479#2561893 (10Awjrichards) [19:59:11] awjr: you seem to be in a wall-o-texty mood today ("heretics") :P [20:03:21] meeple27: the thought occurred to me right after i hit 'send' :p [20:03:25] sorry! [20:03:43] I thought maybe you were just trolling me :) [20:03:44] it might have something to do with the phase of the moon [20:03:51] lol i am not that clever ;) [20:04:42] but it is a full moon, which seems auspicious [20:09:50] in the southern hemisphere, apparently an August full moon is known as a "wolf moon", so I'm pretty sure it must be affecting you. [20:15:15] lol [20:15:32] meeple27: also have you tried changing your font to one more suitable for reading large blocks of text? [20:15:44] comic sans? [20:16:02] roflmaobbq [20:16:09] exactly.

Very helpful, I'll write up some notes. [22:56:33] we were over meeting time anyway. 🌅 [22:56:35] my question if you didn't hear it was whether empirically the lists are already pretty much the same. If not, what problems would come from pretending that they are the same
