I am also on the Accumulo PMC and on that project we use Github issues and no longer use Jira. This switch was made before my time so I'm not sure of the reasoning. Personally, I don't really care too much either way as I've used both but I will just point out 2 things from my experience with it.
1) For version tracking, we use projects and not milestones. I don't know if this is the best way to do things but that's what we have been using and seems to work ok as you can list multiple projects (versions) for an Issue or PR: https://github.com/apache/accumulo/projects?type=classic 2) Robbie's point about whether or not Issues get opened is a really good point and something that is not consistent at all in Accumulo. What I have found is it is all over the place. In some cases people just open PRs and essentially are self documenting issues with the fix. In other cases people open up issues and then open up PRs. It does get confusing sometimes since they share the same numbering and name space. It may make sense to try and establish some guidelines if we go with Github Issues just so we are consistent about it.
