Agree encouraging is better, but that will become invalid if it is chosen to use Github as the new way to report issues/improvement contribution. In that case the patch is a more complex way to contribute and discuss contributions. > > > > - Require tickets only for bug reports > > -1 > > Jira tickets for improvements/new features are extremely helpful to have > everything in one place (with the addition to a link to the mailing list > discussion), track the efforts, watch issues etc. > > How would you manage the work then? > Agree that being restrictive is not good.

The problematic is the lost of history and like was said github being external to Apache. But what Jira do offer that github do not ? Is that possible to keep Jira as a legacy bugTracker for history sake ? Is that to much work for us to adapt to this new tool. Do other apache project use github as their bugTracker, and is that an issue ?
