Is there a chance that roles will be broken out at the bottom again?
Or do we have to just accept the change / move on?

@aymeric,
Thank you for showing that as the founder you are willing to listen to your user community. Appreciate it and know it must be a bit challenging shifting the roadmap but as a user, I appreciate it.
Also, why not move the advisory group here? Your folks are crazy engaged and not everyone uses/loves facebook (privacy issues, social media as a general distraction, etc).

Q: Do you want the ability for the task to be visible in a normal board?
I understand that tasks can be tagged to a "board list" as well. To keep it simple, perhaps tasks that are tagged with a "board list" and/or "role" should appear in the corresponding "board list" and/or "role".
Q: Would you want to be able to move them into Plan of the Week or Schedule?
Yes, it would be essential to be able to schedule these tasks into schedule. Allowing users to move them to Plan of the Week might also increase usage for Plan of the Week.
thanks

Could they be added and managed in the role board directly please?
If they are in "Boards" or "Schedule" and tagged with the corresponding role, they should logically appear as well.
Ok I think I understand how you woudl be using this board.
Do you want the ability for the task to be visible in a normal board or you want to be able to move them into Plan of the Week or Schedule?

On second thought, I'm unclear about "Or should the Boards view allow to group by Role instead of List as a setting? (and therefore no need for the Roles tab)"--which would allow users to see all roles and their tasks without mouse clicks.
I get that you want to be able to see:
Role1 | Role2
Task1 | TaskA
Task2 | TaskB
My question is where do the tasks come from?
Are they pulled from your schedule, from a specific board, from all boards, or a task added in this role board doesn't appear anywhere else?
So:
- "plan of the week" on the left
- one of the three tabs on the right (Schedule, Boards, Roles)
The Roles tab shows the tasks from all Boards grouped by role.
Or should the Boards view allow to group by Role instead of List as a setting? (and therefore no need for the Roles tab)

What if we introduce a way to see all your backlog grouped by role, a bit like a user suggested, you would have three links: "Schedule Boards Roles"
Like the Boards view, you would be able to see your Schedule on the same page as the Roles board.
We would however keep the Plan of the Week as it is.
Would that solve the contention?
