This may just be me, but 14 days seems kind of strict for the type of projects it is for and given the learning curve of all the parties involved like someone else mentioned. It…
mnicole on HNThanks for responding! I would think so. I mean, I'd want to use it throughout the entire iterative process, so that means I'm waiting at least a week for everyone's feedback,…

Learning curve for clients
From 1 comment

Git or version control integration
From 1 comment
Looks really interesting. I’ll definitely consider using this. Seems great for collaboration. Idea: integrate something like this with a version control system like Git(hub)?
