      We use Jira/GH and competitive tool in parallel so I see the release planning tools amongst the biggest missing parts in GH.
      The reports/charts in GH are based on historical data, but no estimates are made based on the velocity and backlog change pace. For example it would be nice to be able to have a rough prediction of a possible release date that is based on the remaining story points in the backlog + average changes calculated based on historical data and the velocity of the team. These projections would make it easier to keep track of the project and plan further releases.
      Basically when you fix release date you need to plan what stories could be included and if you take into account only two dimensions - velocity and CURRENT backlog content you produce wrong estimate. Of course it won't work for release 1.0 but already 1.1 could be planned with quite reasonable accuracy.
      Would it be possible to add such chart?

            It's becoming apparent to our shop, as well, that this sort of chart is becoming a necessity. I truly hope that GH is there for us on this one.
