People will use those to post questions or issues, because they are unaware that there are other support and issue filing avenues (they will mask them as PRs merging a release branch into master). At least those people now have a more obvious place to file issues: the Issues section on GitHub. We already have a lot of triage work on JIRA as it is. I doubt this will go down. That said, I don't think that's necessarily bad. Will we have more work? Probably. Will we be able to more easily identify issues, and earlier, and generally be also more accessible to our community? I would think yes. Double-edged sword. I say let's see how it goes. > If we migrate before triaging where will all the un-triaged issues end up?

Yes. Different topic: Shaz, based on your INFRA ticket / phase breakdown, the implication is that there will be leftover cordova repos in Apache Git (cordova-medic, weinre, deprecated platforms / plugins). What do we do with those? Separate discussion? On Wed, Aug 2, 2017 at 5:32 PM, Connor Pearson <cjp...@gmail.com> wrote: > I have a few questions about moving issues to GitHub.
