Hi Dominik,

I am also in favor of migrating to GitHub issues.
I think it will ease the management of open issues and lower the entry barrier 
for new developers.

Further, I am in favor of using GitHub discussions, this is a good way to 
answer to common questions.
I think we should also move the wiki to GitHub, because then we have all the 
information for developers in one location.

Cheers,
Philipp

Betreff: [DISCUSS] Migrate from Jira to Github Issues?

Hi everyone,

submitting bugs and feature requests are types of community contributions with 
a very low entry barrier for first-time contributors. To submit bug reports, 
users currently need to register in our Jira, which is not so straightforward 
for non-Apache-folks.
By using Github issues, I'd expect that users find a more convenient way to 
submit issues and we would foster community engagement.

There are more and more ASF projects which are moving to Github issues, e.g., 
our friends from PLC4X have just recently migrated and also Apache Airflow [1] 
and Apache Pulsar [2] are two great examples. I also like the Github discussion 
feature Airflow and Pulsar are using.

For some background information, people from Apache Beam have written a feature 
comparison [3], a migration guide [4] and even a migration tool [5] which we 
could also use to transfer our issues from Jira to Github.

What do you think?

Cheers
Dominik
