Migrating Bugzilla bugs to JIRA

Is there an established process for creating new issues in JIRA that already exist in the old Bugzilla, once they have been confirmed to still exist in Apache NetBeans 9.0 Beta?

(I didn't find mention of this at https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Submitting+issues+in+JIRA )

As an example, I just created the following new JIRA issues:
* https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-403 (corresponds to https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=236403 )
* https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-404 (corresponds to https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=270842 )

I put the old Bugzilla link in the "External issue URL" field. Is that what that field should be used for?

I also see that while the old Bugzilla system prevents the creation of new bugs, it still allows new comments to be added to existing bugs--with an error message being shown about the fact that at least certain notification emails cannot be sent out. I added comments to the two existing bugs about the new JIRA issues above.

Is adding a comment to an existing Bugzilla bug the best way to notify existing CCers that the bug has been migrated to JIRA? Do notification emails still actually get sent out?

Or should the ability to add comments to existing bugs maybe be disabled completely on the old Bugzilla system, since Bugzilla now seems to be a bit of a "black hole"?

Hi All

     https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi bugzilla is abandoned ? I
see Either no products have been defined to enter bugs against or you have
not been given access to any.

The error on commenting on existing Bugs is a weird Problem.

No established process at this point, your proposal makes perfect sense to
me, though.
