Redmine projects layout

Development
1

Hello foreman developers,

I was just looking at Redmine backlogs in OFI and Katello projects. I
think it's something which could be useful for both projects but because
both Katello and OFI are under Foreman project they are inheriting its
sprints. I understand that this is useful for other Foreman sub-projects.

What would you thing about changing the project layout to something like:

  • Foreman Projects (top place holder, maybe not necessary)
    • Foreman
      • Kafo
      • Hammer CLI
      • other. projects following Foreman's sprints
    • Katello
    • OFI

This would allow to have independent sprints in Katello and OFI. These
projects would also not pollute Foreman Sprints with their tasks.

Both projects currently do -not- inherit members from Foreman at the
moment, while most other projects do, so that makes sense. Obviously,
they'd need to be moved back to being children of Foreman if you wanted
to share membership in future (to prevent people having to join twice).

Makes sense to me, +1. I think we don't need Foreman Projects placeholder
(unless we migrate all members to it). It would become more confusing imho.

+1, I'm thinking about ditching Katello's Trello backlog and moving to
pure Redmine and this would be a precursor to that.

I've changed Katello in redmine to a top-level project.

+1 to having only one system
