I agree with that. What annoys me is that I have to open a fake issue in Jira. I think we should allow people to open GitHub PR or issues. It gets reported also to mailing list. If a Lucene committer does not want to use GitHub, heshe can just download the PR as patch file and apply. Same for issues: all is mirrored to mailing list.
If our users want to open issues they should do what they prefer. Uwe Am 5.
