I have a few questions about Trello. It looks really amazing and the keyboard controls are AWESOME. So far so good, switching from Basecamp for monetary reason.

So here are the questions I've got so far:

  1. It is currently free, but if I look at the rest of FogCreek's portfolio every apps they made are subscription based. Will Trello stay free?! If not then is there any price given yet?

  2. I'm running some projects as a freelancer so I'd like, on some of my boards, that the cards would be automatically assigned to me. Is it possible to do so?

  3. Is there any batch actions? (batch close, batch assign to, etc) ? It would be very useful, I can't find it yet.

  4. This question has been removed.

For #2: This doesn't totally answer my question but is a good beginning: Assign Self Pressing 'space' will assign (or unassign) yourself to a card.

Regarding question no. 1, as per Trello's page on Privacy, Security and Data:

Free... for how long?

Trello is free forever. We may add pay-only features in the future, but everything that's free today will be free tomorrow and forever.

Regarding question no. 4, it's subjective and thus not fit with the StackExchange policy on questions type. See the related FAQ.

Question no. 2 can now be solved with the copy card functionality.

When you create a new card just copy an existing card that you are assigned and only select the 'Members' check box.

You can then create the rest of the card details from the copy.

You could also use the keyboard shortcuts for assigning people to a card.

When typing in the card title, at the end type '@' and start typing the username. Matching users will appear in a drop down list and allow you add them to the card. Not exactly auto assign but it helps speed up the process.
