Well, infra can SELECTIVELY enable various GitHub features. For CXF, we told them NOT to enable the GitHub issues or Wiki, but those are options if you feel they are useful. CXF has always used JIRA and Confluence and moving off them now would be difficult and, until we got a better feel for the gitbox integration, adding additional bug trackers (aka: enabling issues) just seemed like more work for the project. It is something that can be enabled later if wanted. Basically, baby steps, one step at a time. Basically, the main benefits are: 1) Direct push to GitHub 2) Ability to manage pull requests directly in the GUI. That includes using the merge button and close buttons and such. No funky “this closes ####” commits needed.
