Hi Jacques, please see my remarks inline.

I think it's a good idea to normalize our commits comments and your proposition seems good to me Jacopo.I'm not sure if we should put too much effort in this. How do the committers automate their commit messages today? I guess most do it either by hand every time, have some snippets they reuse or some kind of software which offers shortcuts /clipboard features. I would leave it like that.Now, of course I wonder about how to automate it. I can do it on my own side using TortoiseSVN and Eclipse specific features, nice. I guess the same exist on other svn GUI clients. But could we not enforce the rule and make things automated for committers? Here is an "official" answer from the Subversion team https://subversion.open.collab.net/ds/viewMessage.do?dsMessageId=487681&dsForumId=4 So maybe we could use that as a basis to create our own? https://gist.github.com/alecthegeek/4134951
Yes, the starting point was the work with the blog but I also see some benefit for the commit messages and readability apart from that. The Jira feature, even if it would allow filtering by date, would not suffice my needs for the blog because they don't show the details. As a source, I would always use our svn log.Last but not least: this started from Michael's need to format monthly Jira notes in our blog (kudos for the work Michael!). It will certainly be easier for Michael to have this in place. But you might have noticed that I asked a question to Atlassian about Jira which would remove the need for for Michael, or any of us, to do this work by hand. I got no feedback from anyone, so I rather created a similar feature request: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSW-14843. I invite everyone to vote for it and add comments if necessary, thanks!
Generating the links for the OFBIZ-xxxx is the easiest part, I have automated this using Textwrangler regex search/replace.
So the new format would be helpful in any case. Regards, Michael
