Hi David

> How exactly did you pull it off?
We comment from time to time on github, but jira is the primary tool.

We have a very difficult code base to manage, super cross language! => 20
That's why we have tons of forks :-( 
... and github is popular to share

The main issue with such contributions is the license...
Code attachments within Jira have the following optional statement for file
uploads:
"Grant license to ASF for inclusion in ASF works (as per the Apache License
§5)"

I think we should have a clear statement on our Apache github organization
web site => every contribution to an Apache project is a direct "grant
license to ASF"
This will allow us to process pull requests more efficiently.

All the best!

PS: I'm looking forward to an Apache Allura based code farming and social
coding platform;-)
