Guys, I’d like to request that everyone here pitch in and be
a bit more aggressive about closing off useless JIRA issues. JIRA is absolutely
no use to us if it is clogged up with thousands of issues that no-one is going
to look at in the next two years! Remember, JIRA is for *our
benefit as developers*, it is *not*
there to allow users to escalate problems they are having in the forum, or to
give them an outlet for nagging/whinging. If an issue report is not serving a useful
purpose for us (ie, we will actually get round to *fixing* the issue sometime in the next year) then it should be
immediately closed. It is otherwise extremely difficult to get a handle upon
what is the overall status of the project in terms of known bugs, and high priority
new features. There is a particular kind of user who thinks that every
issue they report in JIRA deserves some kind of special personalized response
from the Hibernate Team. This is *absolutely
not the case*. JIRA is *not*
a support portal, rather, it is our personal TODO list. Thanks. Gavin |
