Nope (I know, I liked the Cayenne l&f too).

OK. Maybe Atlassian will implement this one day in Jira. If you agree, please vote for the issue I found:

http://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-11133

Personally I dislike the way the Apache Foundation is so lax with branding. Although the feather is mostly standardised, the text "The Apache Software Foundation" is presented in a different font and layout everywhere it appears. And at the top of the Jira page along the with URL which presumably you know since you are using a web browser to get there. Anyhow, a conversation for another list...

Maybe you could change the purple-red header colour to match one of the reds from the feather?


* If we want to customise our workflow or permissions do we ask you to set up these? I see that permissions are set to "standard permissions" but I don't really know what that means. I assume any user can create tasks and comment on tasks, but only committers, etc can change the milestone or
status?

Generally we'd like to not see customization. You'll need to explain
why Cayenne is special compared to other projects, but there are fair
reasons to want specialness. For permissions, you use the project role
concept to manage your project rather than the jira groups.


OK. I assume it is useful to be able to report across projects to have their workflows and statuses match. However we now have a lot of rubbish in our issue types:


We are likely to get people picking inappropriate tasks types. Surely "new Jira project" should be restricted to the Infrastructure project or something? And we don't want to encourage questions in our Jira since we use the mailing list for help. I don't even know what RTC means. Ideally, we only have "bugs" and "new features".


I notice that some of our SVN commits are doubled up, but that might have been that way from before the migration:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAY-1167?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.ext.subversion%3Asubversion-commits-tabpanel


* Should the repository at the left point to Cayenne?

* Can the commit revision number point to: http://fisheye6.atlassian.com/changelog/cayenne/?cs=733975 instead? Fisheye is so much more useful than the bare bones viewcvs.


Cheers
