Re: [geogig-dev] geogig project issue tracker

[Jody Garnett <jgarnett@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

One question about the bugzilla option, currently I linked to the general locationtech bugzilla selecting the geogig component - is that correct? Or do projects get independent bugzillas ... I am just wondering if there is some decent link we can provide for the geogig project page for visitors to see the currently open bugs.

Hi Everyone,

If the GeoGig project is willing, we could trial using JIRA for it. This is not officially endorsed or supported yet, and we may have to move off of it if things go badly. Personally, I am optimistic this will one day be officially supported.

Please be aware that there's a really nice integration between git, gerrit, and bugzilla at the Eclipse Foundation & its working groups like LocationTech. The same account works for all systems, and that's pretty nice to have.

Currently github issues are not yet supported for projects @ Eclipse and its working groups. That said, our IT team is working on a prototype that can sync issues from github automatically so that may be possible one day soon.

So to summarize the options:

• Bugzilla - too easy... nothing special to do
• JIRA - trial it with me... accepting you may be asked to move off of it
• Github issues - not there yet to offer a trial

Let me know what you want to do?

Taking this out from other email thread.

We do have an issue tracker available for use (that is in use):

* https://locationtech.org/bugs/buglist.cgi?bug_status=__open__&content=&no_redirect=1&order=Importance&product=GeoGig&query_format=specific

Since that was set up there are two new options:

a) Set up a Jira (work with Andrew Ross on this one)

Say at atlassian.net or similar.

b) Make use of GitHub issue tracker

https://github.com/locationtech/geogig (we would need to turn it on)

When we decide on what to use we should login and update the project page links.

A big shout out to andrew ross for making this happen (it hinged on making sure that the eclipse foundation can grab a copy of the issue tracker in case the service we are using goes down).

While that may sound silly, it is a brutal reality (CodeHaus just shut down and GeoTools was using it for many years, and SourceForge was having weeks of downtime this year).
