Hi JB- Yep, thanks for calling that out. When I indicated ‘security mailing list’ I should have been more clear to say ’secur...@apache.org’, to remove ambiguity that I was referring to an ActiveMQ mailing list. I’ll clean-up points on the Proposal thread. Thanks! Matt > On Apr 16, 2024, at

Hi Bruce- I don’t believe there is any intention to replace issue comments with comments on a PR or vice versa. My point is that the current process of using JIRA for issue discussion isn’t really effective, and doesn’t serve a newer user base that is more familiar with using GitHub vs JIRA.

I am not convinced that we should replace Jira with Github issues. Based on the info gathered and the discussions thus far, I believe such a change would cause significant confusion for our users. As noted previously, there is a significant difference between the purposes for a Jira issue vs.

Robbie- One option with GH issues is we can have them prompted with a ’type’ (for example, an issue or security report). Security report workflow could take them to the readme with email link to direct users to the mailing list and (hopefully) getting better adherence to the requested security

Hi Clebert- How widely used are private comments today? I ran a search and I do not see any private comments in use with the ActiveMQ project. I tried searching the ARTEMIS project, perhaps I got the JQL incorrect? project = ARTEMIS AND issueFunction in commented("group activemq-pmc”) project

On the lack of Issues tab, though it doesnt seem to have been too much of an issue so far, we could certainly improve that by ensuring each repo README always covers how to raise things (or just links to the website page that covers it; I think some repos already do). Plus, opening Discussions

Whilst Jira can certainly do that, I dont believe we have ever used it in that fashion here, and so I dont see that it could be considered a break either way. Also, the process of e.g privately reporting security issues wouldnt change in any event, it would remain as it is now (and is detailed on

I don't have a strong opinion on migrating from Jira to GitHub Issues. I would prefer GitHub Issues only for its better integration and because new users that reach from the GitHub repository could be confused to not find the `Issues` tabs (most of the GitHub projects use it). Also GitHub Issues

I would prefer to keep JIRA for their REST interface. Also: one thing to notice is the possibility of using private comments in JIRA. Say you ever have a security issue. I think you can have PMC private comments on JIRAs. I'm not sure you have the same in github issues. I didn't see a note

The 'track version as Project' thing is interesting, though kinda further underscores the limitations of Milestones which are really the main surfaced way of handling versions. I'll bet some folks on the 'users' side of things looking at released issues later would even miss that you are doing

Hello @dev- I argue that we are effectively already using GitHub for issues, JIRA is just getting a back-port sync of the discussion. The reality is that code-change discussions are occurring on the PRs, not in JIRA or mailing lists-- and that makes sense. It is far easier to have a discussion
