Planner error - You've run out of space
Brian-Smith, Is there a place where planner constraints / limitations / constraints are documented yet? Can't find anything in technet. We're setting up Team & plan combos for a couple projects as a test-bed for how we might use them more widely to democratize task creation, assignment, status updating, etc. - and it sure would be great to know what we're up against before we get in too deep.

The latest from the Planner team from their Roadmap blog post - https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Planner-Blog/Planner-Ignite-Review-and-Roadmap/ba-p/126858/jump-to/first-unread-message was that all functional limitations were being removed.
"Removing task limits from Microsoft Planner
Many users have asked about overall task limits within Planner, and by the end of December, we will have removed all functional limits to tasks. When users open their Planner boards, we will surface the tasks that are most relevant to them and provide options to fetch older tasks as needed."
Was there some other limit that was concerning you? Joanna Parkhurst might also be able to comment.

Nothing further, just zero awareness it happened - hard to use blog posts (form a source I didn't know existed... still used to technet/msdn blogs) as the go-to place for product documentation. Also, the (or at least one that returned from a google search) uservoice entry isn't marked with any comment or status saying it's been delivered or was being considered https://planner.uservoice.com/forums/330525-microsoft-planner-feedback-forum/suggestions/16700584-remove-250-task-limit-per-person-per-plan?page=4&per_page=20
Thanks for pointing out this blog (and post) exists - I just followed.

I agree we don't make it easy to follow along Ian. Certainly for Planner I think the team can confirm that the TechCommunity blog will be their primary announcement site going forward and George Bullock has taken over from Dave Heller - so he can confirm. Major announcements might be on the Office Blog at https://blogs.office.com/en-us/ . I do some support posts on Planner and a few light dev topics on my MSDN blog at https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/brismith in case you haven't seen them. KB style documents can be found at support.microsoft.com - such as the FAQ at https://support.office.com/en-US/article/Answers-to-top-Microsoft-Planner-questions-d1a2d4e6-a4d7-408c-a48a-31caaa267de5
I hope these few links help.
Best regards,
Brian
