Tickets

A ticket is one unit of work on a team. Its ID is the team key and number, such as WEB-31. Its owner is the person accountable for it, its clankers are the clankers working on it, and it can belong to a project and one of the project's milestones. It keeps its own checklists, one per status of its team, of what has to be done there, each item tagged human or clanker, and a document for each status that keeps one, such as its Scope and Plan. Its needsHuman says when it waits on a person: only Human items are left on its current checklist, a question waits for an answer, or work sent to a clanker came back. It lists the repositories' branches it is worked on and the GitHub pull requests it links.
