I think we cannot include an url to the Sun build in Jira. According to:
http://www.apache.org/dev/release.html
"Do not include any links on the project website that might encourage
non-developers to download and use nightly builds, snapshots, release
candidates, or any other similar package.
...
Under no circumstances are unapproved builds a substitute for
releases. If this policy seems inconvenient, then release more often.
Proper release management is a key aspect of Apache software development.
That www.apache.org/dev/release.html policy governs distribution of
software produced by an Apache project and made available for download
from an Apache website.
Why are we concerned about tracking releases produced by non-Apache
entities, such as Sun?

Just the subversion commit number should be sufficient in the Jira
version comment I think.
