Perhaps we could find a way to make this easier… (maybe even effortless?) through conventions.
Something like this: - Label related wiki pages with the issue key - Make a widget for Confluence that displays link(s) to any JIRA issues within the page's labels. - Make a custom field (or plugin) within JIRA to display links to any Confluence pages labeled with the issue key. - Create a cron job that watches the mailing list(s) and adds automagically adds a comment to the JIRA ticket with a mailing list link whenever a new thread is created with a subject starting with an issue key *or* a message body contains "@jira link FOO-123". Then we'd have our linkages by simply following the convention of labeling pages & prefixing e-mail subjects with the issue key (which wouldn't be a bad thing even without the tweaks above) and, when a mailing list discussion ends up generating an issue or somebody forgets to follow conventions within the subject, it would only require a reply with the "@jira link FOO-123" to make the link. -Burke On Fri, Sep 16, 2011 at 7:56 PM, Michael Downey <[email protected]> wrote: > Hola, > > On Fri, Sep 16, 2011 at 7:49 PM, Darius Jazayeri <[email protected]> > wrote: > > What is the best way to find a permalink to a dev list post?
