I'm not going to thoroughly discuss the migration path from Jira to GitHub here, but generally, the rough image in my mind is the same as Jan described - "Milestone" for version tracking, and "labels" for other purposes (issue types, component types, etc.).
As for the proposal of in-house GitLab, it could be an option (if UI/UX is the only problem) but I don't think it's feasible. We need high availability platform and we don't have machine/human resources to operate such mission-critical in-house service on our own. And, even if it's possible, we still have to switch between two platforms - it doesn't solve my problem. > That's precisely the crux of the disagreement: I want to be able to register > an account at Apache and *not* GitHub and still be able to contribute. > Is the original Jira -> GitHub move just a change of defaults or are we, > once moved to GitHub, not letting people use Jira at all anymore ? Interesting point - is there anyone else who doesn't have or use GitHub account and *won't sign up or sign in for it* ?
