was (Author: misty):
Committed to master. Unsure if I need to cherry-pick this somewhere else. It's
docs so I guess not?

> Following on from Andrew's JIRA year-end cleaning spree, lets get some
> guidelines on filing issues e.g. fill out all pertinent fields, add context
> and provenance, add value (i.e. triage), don't file issues that are nought
> but repeat of info available elsewhere (build box or mailing list), be
> reluctant filing issues that don't have a resource behind them, don't file
> issues on behalf of others, don't split fixes across multiple issues (because
> there are poor folks coming behind us trying to backport our mess and
> piecemeal makes their jobs harder), and so on.
> The guidelines are not meant to put a chill on the opening of issues when
> problems are found, especially not for new contributors. They are more meant
> for quoting to veteran contributors who continue to file issues in violation
> of what was thought a common understanding; rather than explain each time why
> an issue has been marked invalid, it would be better if we can quote chapter
> and verse from the refguide.
> Dump any suggestion in here and I'll wind them up as a patch that I'll run by
> dev mailing list to get consensus before committing.
> Here is a running google doc if you'd like to add comment:
