>From what I can see, this adds a custom field to JIRA. So people can tick a checkbox for "patch available" when they edit the bug. When searching, you now also see whether an issue has a patch available or not.
Makes sense to me but you should get feedback from the wider group. Here's another url example. This limits the search to only issues with patches available then sorts them by priority. Note the "Patch Availabe" column second from the left: https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&&pid=12310210&resolution=-1&customfield_12310041=Patch+Available&sorter/field=priority&sorter/order=DESC On Feb 7, 2008 11:43 PM, Luciano Resende <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I was looking into the open JIRAs to identify areas where I could > help, and realize that various JIRAs have patches available, and some > have already been commented as fixed, but are still open.
