- Finally, patches should be attached to a bug report in [[http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR|Jira]].  If you are revising an existing patch, please re-use the exact same name as the previous attachment, Jira will "grey out" the older versions so it's clear which version is the newest.

  Please be patient.  Committers are busy people too.  If no one responds to your patch after a few days, please make friendly reminders.  Please incorporate other's suggestions into into your patch if you think they're reasonable.  Finally, remember that even a patch that is not committed is useful to the community.

+ == JIRA tips (our issue/bug tracker) ==
+ The issue tracker we use is a JIRA instance at https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR
+ 
+   * When creating new issues in JIRA, please keep the "Description" field sort - every change or followup on the issue will cause an email to be sent to the solr-dev mailing list, and will include the complete Description every time.
+   * When attaching newer versions of a file/patch, use the same name... JIRA will "gray out" the older versions automatically.
+   * Please do not delete older files that you have already added - the complete history of an issue is important.
+   * If you aren't sure if something is a bug, please ask on the solr-user mailing list before opening an issue.
