At the same time and for same reasoning, descriptions for stacks would also be useful

@juliushaertl how hard do you think this would be? Might have someone I can volunteer.

The implementation boils down to the following:

• Add new column to the oc_deck_boards table for the description
• Add support for the new column in the \OCA\Deck\Db\Board and \OCA\Deck\Db\BoardMapper classes
• Add support for updating the description to the BoardController/BoardApiController
• Implement a frontend for the description editing - It would make sense to base this on the vue branch, so we don't end up with developing it twice

This would be a great addition. Has there been any progress on it?

This is also useful for adding usage guidelines of the board.

I bet that it belongs under the board's details.

I would love to @user in that description to express who is manager of that board/topic. Hovering username should give me shortcut to talk or talk/mail that user.
