New Labels Feature

We are very excited to announce that we've finally released the "labels" feature. To try it out just go to the project page then: Project > Labels.

On the surface, it is a replacement for categories that allows you to apply multiple labels to the same story.

But there's a lot more power to it should you chose to use it. You can define custom fields, acceptance tests, and tasks for a label. And when you apply a label to a story, the story inherits all of the attributes defined for the label.

We have more things planned too for this feature, but we also wanted to release it as early as possible to get it in the hands of our users.

It is much easier to use than it is to explain, so be sure to give it a try and let us know what you think.

Gravity Blog

Welcome to the new Gravity blog. Here are some of the things that have kept us busy:

New Plans and Prices

In the next few days we'll be announcing some new Gravity plans. If you're happy with the current one, don't worry, you get to keep it until you decide to switch.

New Features

We are working on a new feature called "Project Pages". The title pretty much says it all. It will be great for documentation, notes, etc. We are very excited about it.

We are also working to improve the way categories work. It will be more like "labels" (think gmail) and it will come with other capabilities (can't say too much :)

We also want to finish polishing our API and provide documentation for it.

Fixes

We have fixed some issues that were reported and we are working on others. In particular we are going to improve the way sessions are handled, provide better support for multi-byte characters, better Google Apps integration, etc.

Please continue to let us know what you think, if you want some features, or if you have concerns. We LOVE getting feedback.

We'll continue to post to both the blog and twitter, so watch for updates.
