Thorsten Scherler commented on FOR-972:
---------------------------------------

I any form either via pull like I describe or via push like you suggest we need 
(common for both) 
+ basic
++ transform from jira issue xml to action (project plugin has jira to xdocs)
+ advanced
++ listener that keeps the status.xml in sync with jira

The process cannot be 100% automatic in the given ASF infrastructure.

The forrestbot could be extended to do this BUT forrestbot needs to be 
rewritten as soon we switch to cocoon-trunk (since there is no commandline). I 
reckon this is a real good use case for Apache Droids but implementing it ATM 
(100% automatic) is a far amount of work (moving and extending forrestbot to 
droids).

However the first step is a basic xsl stylesheet jira-xml-to-status which 
should not be hard to implement. This would give as a c'n p master.
