Interesting features. I wonder whether they include threaded comments/answering to comments

Oh wait, these features seem to only be for board and backlog, my bad. Still would be nice to see some progress on that feature.

Game changing! Can't wait for inline editing (finally catching up with the likes of Monday.com) and the Epic panel is slllllllllliiiiiiiick 👌

Hi all, we're going to start opening up early access slowly over the coming days. Let me know if you want to be one of the first to take a tour and give feedback. You can email me on eryan@atlassian.com

Looking forward to chatting!

I still don't see the EAP / new features. How long will it take?

@Eoin I've been testing the new filters with the EAP.  I noticed that on a team board I can filter by Epic, but on the backlog the filter is Feature/Epic and I don't see any Epics.  My question is does the Feature/Epic filter in the backlog only pull from that backlog's project?  The reason I'm asking is we setup our Epics in a different project than our team board/backlog.

Hi @Doug Griffiths  - we're wrapping Early Access up next week. We've had a plateau in the feedback volume and we are working through the key themes at the moment. We'll start slowly rolling out to product admins from early July and most users will get the changes by August. I'll be sharing more comms next week around this in detail. Thanks

Hi @Troy M - sounds like a couple of potential issues going on there. 
The filter name being different is a bug - thanks for raising it - we are on it! It should be setting the filter name on the board (like it is on backlog) from your issue type hierarchy config.

The filter values are taken from the story-level issues. So if you have story-level issues in your backlog that have epics - then you should see these epics in the filter. Can you share more details at eryan@atlassian.com or would you be able to have a Zoom catchup https://calendly.com/eoinryan/30min 

Thanks

How do I disable inline editing? It's kinda annoying.

Hi @Wallyson Rodrigo - thanks for the feedback. There is no way to disable it. Can you expand on what you find annoying? This can help us make improvements. I'm also available to chat on zoom if that works for you https://calendly.com/eoinryan/30min :) 

Thanks!!

Is this Cloud only, or will it be available in Data Center?  If so, what release?

In my enhanced board, in Active Sprint view, the story's names are missing. It will only show the epic label, which I don't really need in Sprint view.

Does anyone see the same or know how to add back the story names in Active Sprint view?

[LATER EDIT] - nevermind, it just showed up out of the blue

I like the new enhancement, specially in the backlog page, ability to see the status of the tasks in the active sprints as well is very useful, thanks. Looking forward to explore more enhancements and use it.

Will this include any meaningful updates to "days in column" on the board? My teams are constantly asking how they can see the days (actual number) but there's only the dots.

HI.

The enhancement just got my company's instance. I'm a Jira Admin and I don't yet see a way to toggle the enhancement on for our instance. When is that coming? And when will the instances start defaulting to this enhancement?

Hi @Apryl Harris - you can't toggle it on immediately for everyone in your company. Provided you don't delay the roll-out, your users will get the option to opt-in in two weeks' time. Around mid-late August we will opt-in people who haven't already opted in. And it won't be until the end of September that we remove the opt-out option. Hope this helps. 

Thanks

Hi @Casey Gould - not with this piece of work. as a workaround you could try an automation rule on a custom field and have this added to the card... https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Marketplace-Apps-Integrations/How-may-I-increment-a-custom-field-s-number-on-a-specific/qaq-p/742636

Hi @Cristian Floristean - thanks for raising this. That sounds strange and I'm keen to keep an eye on this so it would be amazing if you could let me know if this happens again. My email address is eryan@atlassian.com if you could even email me directly. 

Thanks

Superb Thanks @Eoin - just got this rolled out to us ... initially there was a performance issue when loading the backlog/board but it seems to be ok after 10/15 mins of enabling it.

Looks great so far. Looking forward to more things like un/collapsing all sprints, editing items under the summary (Card layout for active / backlog) and more :)

Thanks for this
