Good day, I am approaching you on behalf of the Jakarta Commons HttpClient project
We are wondering if it would be possible to promote Jakarta Commons HttpClient to a top level project in Bugzilla. We would like to be able to set release versions and milestones specific to HttpClient, which is not possible as long as HttpClient remains a sub-component of jakarta-commmons. Please let us know if that's feasible Cheers, Oleg Kalnichevski On Thu, 2004-01-22 at 21:28, Oleg Kalnichevski wrote: > Good day, > > Following the proposal to migrate Jakarta Commons projects from Bugzilla > to JIRA posted to the Jakarta commons-dev list, we would like to have a > few points clarified, before the final decision can be made whether > Jakarta Commons HttpClient project stays with Bugzilla or migrates > (kindly requests to be migrated) to JIRA. > > * Do you actually encourage migration from Bugzilla to JIRA?
