Trello and Asana have real-time collaboration built-in and it's very very useful, especially for remote teams. For now, the two most useful features, in my opinion, would be:
* if two people are watching a Workboard, and one of them moves a task around, the other should see the updates in real time
* if someone creates a subtask, someone looking at the parent Task should see it appear without refreshing the page
This would enable tasking / prioritization to go much more smoothly for remote meetings.
Upstream has already communicated that this is a pretty tough feature. We will start by implementing {T765}, which exists today and //just// needs to be enabled.
From the previous description:
* ~~[[ https://secure.phabricator.com/T4901 | Tasks updating in real-time when dependents are changed ]]~~ (wontfix)
** if someone creates a subtask, someone looking at the parent Task should see it appear without refreshing the page
(This shouldn't be a big problem once pop-up notifications are enabled, but needs to be verified.)
