Thanks Bob. Seems like most prefer the style of email discussion (over holding a discussion through JIRA Comments), and the ability to look at a thread of discussion (in an archive). We also want to make sure there's information from the discussion available to those looking at a JIRA issue.
To satisfy those, I'm wondering... If we hold issue discussion on river-dev, perhaps, instead of summarizing back in the issue, we just put a link to the beginning of the email thread from river-dev (assuming people don't change the subject line)? That way anyone looking at the JIRA issue who wanted to peruse the thread of discussion on it, could easily do so. Does that work for most? -Jim On Sep 7, 2007, at 1:24 PM, Bob Scheifler wrote:

River-dev email thread discussions on an issue are not prohibited (but not preferred), and if they occur than a summary must be posted back on the JIRA issue.Using JIRA for discussions seems like a PITA, and summarizing back to JIRA seems unlikely to me to be worthwhile. But since I'm resigned to +0 on CTR, I might as well trust that mentors know better here as well. - Bob
