FE Design JIRA structure

[Erin Yu]

James and I talked about the way the design tasks are organized in  
JIRA so far. I'll share what I learned here as it was very helpful for  
me:
Currently each task is organized into component, category, sub- 
category, then task.

For example, under Mobile component, there is a task named:
iPhone: artifacts data: produce functional prototype of artifacts view  
[shared with TM, JY, AK]

James also refers to the sub-categories as "micro-engagement" in our  
conversations.

I think it would help if the component names were a bit more specific  
to include the categories (e.g. "Mobile - iPhone" or even "Mobile -  
iPhone - artifacts data"). This way, each component would contain  
manageable number of tasks, and it would be possible to include the  
the type of activity (i.e. Wireframes, User Testing, etc.) in the task  
title, which I found very helpful in Fluid Academic.
