Yeah more or less the lists are discussion-oriented for the most part.  When
I think of JIRA, I think of more serious items to be presented to the
business for more guided discussions and DoesThisPatchReallyMakeSense tests.

I also agree with Carlo, JIRA is for facts not opinions...but JIRA has
turned into well-documented whining, complete with a database entry and
ticket id.

Then again, Linden Labs doesn't really have a customer-facing ticket system
like most companies do and while they are a service industry, I don't blame
them due to being primarily a software-oriented company.  They want to focus
on stability and tracking and JIRA is an excellent tool to do that, but I
think it wouldn't hurt for a plain ol customer & technical support system
that is not JIRA.

@Sheet, the mailing list is perfectly fine for collaboration.  Taking it to
the Wiki only means I get to flame in wiki syntax (Yay!) yeah, like that
will happen.  If we wanted to have fun, let's get a Buzz going or forums.
And not SL forums, I'm talking good ol' fashioned phpbb.  And to me, JIRA is
way too bloated to have a decent conversation over a simple topic.

That's what makes Gmail so awesome.
