I see that releases and milestones currently are just dates in the
calendar.

Is there any interest (besides mine off course), to have stories
assigned to a release?

The process we follow is to assign stories to a project and then
schedule a release with a subset of the backlog. The iterations are
then planned out of the release backlog.

Absolutely!

I put releases in there but never got a chance to do anything with them....for now they are really just metadata.  The idea was to provide a nice release planning interface (drag and drop) which would allow you to quickly assign stories to releases and move stories from one release to another.

On a side note...eXPlainPMT needs a refresh.  With Rails 2.0 out we really need to comb the app and make it restful and refactor alot of old stuff.....time time time.

I started looking at this today, and it seems to me that the easiest
approach to this would be to "rename" project to release and create
another entity that would be able look across projects.

In other words this new product entity would have a backlog and
releases. The releases would have their own backlogs and priorities.

What do you think?

I have added this to my local checkout. I basically made Releases
operate like Initiatives with respect to a Story, so you can relate a
story to a release.
Jake, do you want this commit?
