Great tips for leading a team in general, the fact that it's applied to remote teams makes it all very challenging but inspiring at the same time.
Just a curiosity, you mentioned an issue tracker than you've listed apart a bug tracker too, what's the difference between them? Because usually we have a bug tracker and a product backlog, but while the first is for bugs (or issues if you want to call them like that too), the second is for tasks before they get properly scheduled. Usually we as developers know how to use them both but obviously we don't deal with their schedule and assignment to the sprints which is usually left to the producers even though they check with us priorities and time estimates before.
Good question! The way we see it is that a bug tracker is a system that keeps track of any software bugs. But an issue tracker is something bigger - it's a system that allows you to track both bugs and features and all other type of tasks that you may have while building software.
So basically a bug tracker is a type of issue tracker. A good example of an issue tracker is Jira. A bug tracker example is Mantis Bug Tracker or BugHerd.
