+1, Jira should be in place independent of the contribution channel. Apart from this, it seems we have limited members in GitHub OFBiz Committers team [1], So I am not sure on all the committers are getting the pull request notifications.
We can use [email protected] list for the activities related to pull request (again this doesn't mean we can skip Jira ticket). "Notification on pull request activity" - this is followed by various Apache projects, like Airflow, Roller etc. Some projects like Cassandra even have dedicated list for PR notification but I think, we don't need a dedicated list for PR, [email protected] should work for us. As Gil mentioned, we can also explore the Jira + GitHub integration. [1] https://github.com/orgs/apache/teams/ofbiz-committers The link above is accessible to members only.
