Is JIRA for sandbox'ed and branch'ed code? (was Re: [jira] Created: (GERONIMO-2407) openwire impl in gcache won't compile)

Hi Bill,

Why is the issue reported in the Geronimo JIRA? AFAIUI It's for a
sandbox'ed code and as well as for branch'ed code the Geronimo JIRA
instance is not meant to be used in such cases.

Not having tried to write release notes :-) I'm not sure what  
problems show up, but certainly not everything in JIRA goes into  
every release notes: the issues have to be filtered by branches/ 
version.  So as long as JIRAs for sandbox stuff don't have a release  
version number associated with them they shouldn't get into any  
release notes.  Maybe along with "Wish List" we should have "Sandbox"?

thanks

Whenever I think about our tools we can use to help in development
process I try to see their final results. In this case - would it ever
become part of RELEASE NOTES that's generated from JIRA? It would not
if gcache never did its way to the trunk, would it? I think JIRA is
not meant for sandbox'ed code. JIRA messages may mislead easily that
gcache is already on trunk. On the other hand, it bothers me that we
can't provide anything better to help non-committers contribute to it.

I'm not convinced with JIRA and gcache playing together, but don't
have anything better to advocate. Eh, I'll have to get used to it.

Jacek,

This use seems completely appropriate to me..... Bill is supplying a  
patch against some code that he cant commit against himself.  Where  
else could he put the patch?  Among other advantages, using jira  
gives him the opportunity to explicitly authorize apache (or the  
geronimo committers) to apply the patch... if he used the mailing  
list it would not be so clear IMO.

thanks
