In what sense are we special in our user/developer distinction? I can't really think of anything to particularly support that.
I don't know that we are special in anyway. I do think we are not great at proactively communicating, and that while I would want to improve in that, having more of the conversations that do take place visible to users is in my view a good thing.
In terms of JIRA traffic going to dev, actually I consider it detrimental that everyone filters JIRAs off and never bothers to actually look at JIRA. Patches continually sit on JIRAs for weeks/months/years before anyone picks them up (e.g when I send out an email moaning about how many hundred open JIRAs we have, or how many open JIRAs are assigned to already-released versions, at a particular point in time) as so many people clearly never bother looking at JIRA.
I agree, but I think that happens. Ultimately the solution there is probably some sort of component owner system as suggested by Alan (and I'm sure other in the past).
