I saw Matthias' comment on ADFFACES-104 regarding the protocol for bringing up issues on the adffaces-dev list vs. opening a JIRA.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ADFFACES-104#action_12424717 Am I correct in assuming this is the preferred protocol: 1) if it is an obvious bug (e.g. a NullPointerException is being thrown, etc.), open a JIRA 2) if it is a new feature, e-mail -dev; after discussion, open a JIRA Is #1 a valid case, or should we ALWAYS e-mail adffaces-dev before opening a JIRA? For #2, at what point is the decision made to open a JIRA? Do we need go ahead from a commiter? Also, it seems there is a category #3: it seems like a bug, but maybe it's not? In ADFFACES-104 for example, when I first read the issue I assumed it was a bug that had slipped through Matthias' amazing refactoring work. I could have seen myself filing a JIRA under case #1 above thinking that this was an "obvious" bug. (I suppose the idea here is--before assuming a change someone else did/didn't make is a bug, e-mail adffaces-dev.) Once the protocol is clarified, I'd also like to add this to the "involved" wiki... http://wiki.apache.org/myfaces/ADF_Faces/involved Thanks, Joey
