Thanks Vladimir for bringing this up. I think it would be a good idea to have a discussion on this list before anyone dedicates too much effort.
My own opinion is that it would be great to get off bugzilla. I see the merit in using Github instead of Jira - because Github is an integrated environment supporting Issues, Pull Requests and Continuous Integration. I would argue that maybe we could consider also moving to Git (away from Subversion). I have a big preference for Pull Requests over patch files being attached to Bugzilla. These patch files get stale very quickly while Git/Github provides good tooling for rebasing or merging the latest trunk/main branch changes into PRs. One of the requirements of efforts OSSF Scorecard [1] and SLSA [2] is that code commits are peer reviewed and PRs are a good way to do this. We probably want to get away from having ASF committers committing code directly to svn or git trunk/main branch.

Well, there are only a few active Apache projects that still use Bugzilla. Many migrated to JIRA some time ago. Apache Lucene migrates from JIRA to GitHub Issues right now: * https://github.com/apache/lucene/issues/993 Apache Airflow moved from JIRA to GitHub several years ago: * https://lists.apache.org/thread/g4sc91y585ypc7tgphlhvxt3v8nqsg5d * See https://github.com/apache/airflow/releases * See https://github.com/apache/airflow/issues --- LLVM project migrated 50'000+ issues from Bugzilla to GitHub in Nov 2021: * Here's the result: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues * https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/52603 * https://github.com/llvm/llvm-iwg/issues/56 Coq project migrated 5000 issues from Bugzilla to GitHub: * https://www.theozimmermann.net/2017/10/bugzilla-to-github/ Spring project migrated from JIRA to GitHub in 2019: * https://spring.io/blog/2019/01/15/spring-framework-s-migration-from-jira-to-github-issues Sping Data project migrated from JIRA to GitHub in 2021: * https://spring.io/blog/2021/01/07/spring-data-s-migration-from-jira-to-github-issues Vladimir --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@poi.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@poi.apache.org
