I don't think so, as you say this breaks the project into very small buckets and it's very hard for someone new to get the overview of what's going on and what the big ideas and visions are. I'm a big fan of backing all my work with issue tracker tickets, but *decisions* (except minor ones which only have a very local impact) should not happen in those tickets. IMO tickets are for execution of something that's been decided on your project's dev list. It's a difficult balance, and it requires all developers to be aware of when the time comes to stop discussing in a ticket and bring that discussion to the dev list. >... Maybe we should embrace online conferencing more.... I don't think so, as that's not inclusive nor asynchronous. IMO the combination of dev list + tickets can work well but it requires lots of discipline for the most active developers, to make sure they expose their ideas, decisions and discussions to their project's dev list. -Bertrand --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
