The Atlassian team announces the release of GreenHopper 5.9.4, providing enhancements to the Rapid Board and some handy integrations with native JIRA.
This release also includes a number of fixes.

If the Issue is in an active or completed Sprint the Sprint name is shown along with the end date of the Sprint.

When viewing an issue within JIRA, you can now jump to the relevant GreenHopper board(s) by selecting More Actions > Rapid Board or clicking the View on Rapid Board included in the Agile panel discussed above.
