Oki, this part seems fine, now it comes to the really itchy thing: actually 
using it ;)

How does it work:

1.) write a Jira for the thing you like to change/implement/fix first. This 
should be done even if you only came about a bug by accident!
New Features can be divided into sub-tasks in Jira if needed.
So Jira will be more than 'bug-tracking' but kind of a driver for all kind of 
changes.

2.) Write the code and mention the Jira ID in the checkin comment (e.g. "OWB-32 
add reporting"). You may also mention multiple Jira IDs (e.g. "OWB-33 OWB-34 
fix broken tests caused by different HashMap orders on different platforms")

That's all!

After a while, all commits for this bug/enhancement will magically pop up in 
the Jira, including fisheye link - voila!

This is especially useful ff the bug is being reopened.

Another bonus: you now have the Jira-Id in the SVN-commit log, so you can 
exactly see what caused the changes even if the commit msg isn't that detailed.
