Question from event chat: How are requests added to the backlog (automatically routed or manually added?) 

You can use dynamic filters to automatically add these to a board.

Question from event chat: Are Boards going to replace current Agile Teams functionality in Workfront? Yes, that's what we're working toward. Boards allows for a lot more flexibility in managing your individual team processes and making adjustments as you identify opportunities for improvement.

Question, not seeing that there's an option to copy a Board. If we have a Board setup that took a while with certain filters/settings/card info/etc., and I want to that Board as a base for another Board and just make tweaks, not seeing a Copy option. Will this be coming?

If this helped you, please mark correct to help others : )

Yes. A user will be able to copy a Board. In addition, a user should be able to save a board as a template and then share it out with other users.

Do we know when this function is going to be available?

From Agile Team setup:

It would helpful if this was not a global setting, but could be applied at the project level.  What's the chance of making that change?

Is there a plan to actually create an object for Feature/Epic/Story? We use the Portfolio/Program/Project/Task to organize our work across teams and departments, so this would not be an option for us as suggested by Patrick.

Are the Boards being built to stand alone without requiring attachment to a project.  Currently, a team needs a project created to connect to the current Scrum storyboard.

Hi @cathiele , Boards themselves aren't connected to projects.  You can have cards on a Board all come from the same project, you can have cards from different projects, and you can have ad hoc cards that aren't attached to a project at all, or any combination to suit your needs.

@patrickmu1 , I believe it was Mary Beth's question about how to track dates for milestones/checklist items on the card.  You said you would talk with her after.  I'm also interested in this answer.  Right now, as far as I can tell, the only date on the card is the final completion date.  I would like to be able to view dates when the card is expected to leave its current column or see check list items and their dates without opening the card.  

Great session!
