Each month we highlight new features, improvements and bug fixes...
🖖 Community
Join us on Spectrum, it's something between a forum and a slack channel. We plan to write about all sorts of things that are in development and also we will answer any questions. Also a cool way to meet other die-hard Ora users like yourself.
Slack Upgrade
🌟Slack commands — We added some useful commands so that you can add, close, track and list tasks in slack.
/ora add [name of task] - try adding and assigning directly by typing ora add followed by the name of the task and then an optional assignee
Something else that is useful is to just type /ora which will list all your open tasks in this project with their ids and due date. Note that frozen, review and closed tasks will not show. A neat trick is to set backlogs and other lists full of things to do that are not scheduled yet to frozen and thus not see them in my tasks and also here in slack.
New Features
🌟Assign task creator (list action) — New list action to assign the creator of the task.

Is that it?
Yes, its a smaller update than usual. There is a good reason for that. We've been busy with the desktop app which we plan to release soon... Also, there is another smaller helper app that we've been working on and we will announce soon :)
