Time Boxing: Move Closed / Fixed Taks
3 answers
Hi Markus,
reassigning closed work items should work. The phantom users are clearly
a bug. However, we removed the timebox view in favor to a "scheduling
time"-based presentation integrated into the iteration plan editor. This
new grouping mode should be available from M2 on.
Cheers,

Hallo Michael,
regarding the replacement for the timebox view we will wait for the new function in M2.
Related to the moving of closed work items. You are right it is possible to move closed work items but for us this behavior was unexpected. From our understanding it should not be possible to move a closed work item. The work item was closed by the person who worked on it and should be stay after closing it. Only not completed work items should be able to move eg someone else will take over and complete the task.
Kind regards, Markus

The main argument for modifying closed work items is the need to fix
errors in the work item state. The most basic error is when it is
incorrectly closed. Once one has the ability to re-open a workitem, I
believe that requiring someone to re-open the workitem to change its
properties becomes gratuitous (or at least, should be controlled by
process, and not hard-wired into the workitem engine).
