This application provides project administration which supports the eXtreme Programming Methodolgy. By developing a number of new content types we can use iterations, stories and tasks to manage our XP projects. You invite your customers to write stories and submit them. Employees can than estimate those stories by defining tasks.

The customer can manages priority over the stories by assigning the stories to iterations. The employees can start working on tasks and set the tasks to 'In progress'. After working on a tasks the employee add a booking to the task of the actual worked time. On the project view the customer gets a realtime overview of the progress of the project.
