This is exactly what we do at our team too -- we're developer centric and as developers, we love using Github and Github issues (+ pull-requests) for everything (including PM and HR)

One thing we do miss are certain features from Trello-like tools that give a nice overview of your issues and facilitate PM, so we built a Chrome/FF extension to fill in those gaps (http://zenhub.io)

One thing I wish Github would do is allow for a more granular permission structure. It would be fantastic if we could allow people without github accounts do things like submit issues, or allow certain users (e.g. non-technical staff) only have access to the wiki and issue tracker.

Right now the permissions are centered around what you can do with repositories, it's very developer-centric. I think there is a lot that GitHub could do here to expand their service to be more applicable to an entire organization.


We've been using Huboard recently, but I'm definitely in terested in seeing how Zenhub compares to it. How are you guys going to monetize this?
