Jeff, Jira seems to be down right now. I think all the "watir committers" have admin rights to Jira, which would include both you and me. Last week I was helping a collegue with a selenium ticket on openqa, and noticed that I saw a lot fewer options than what I usually saw. (E.g. he could not edit a ticket he opened, nor could I.) The "watir committers" are the people who had commit rights to the Watir SVN repository, which is why i think you are on this list. It's possible that Patrick gave me special admin rights, but if that is true we should get the same rights to you and Alister so you can help with the Jira set up.
Let me give you all some background. I haven't been watching the Jira tickets for several months and I've decided I need to get back in there and take a look at what we have. This always feels like a daunting task, and I guess It has me complaining because Jira may not be the perfectly ideal tool. It has me thinking. Who else watches the tickets? New tickets? Comments to old tickets? Is there a way for me to see who is watching a ticket? I used to watch them via RSS, which of course wouldn't show up in Jira.
