Maybe we should be using JIRA's Change Log (http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO?report=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.project:changelog-panel) and Open Issues (http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO?report=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.project:openissues-panel) features instead of the filters that I made. This implies that we should use the workflow that Doug Cutting described:

In Hadoop we close issues when a release is made. This makes Jira's "Change Log" feature work better, since folks shouldn't generally change an issue after it has been released, as that will alter the release's change log, which should be read-only. We encourage folks to not re-open closed bugs but instead to create new bugs referencing closed bugs that can be tracked in an upcoming release. Perhaps we should even alter the workflow so that closed issues cannot be re-opened.


In that case, we can simply add a link called "Change Log" to the navbar. Maybe we should change the current JIRA link URL (http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/BrowseProject.jspa?id=10630) to the Open Issues URL, since the current (Browse Project) URL seems to use cookies to open to the JIRA page you viewed in your last browser session (Open Issues, Road Map, Change Log, or Popular Issues).

-------------------------------------

Thanks for your comments, Michael and Craig.

I agree that Issue Tracking is better than Bug Tracking. I am fine with leaving the JIRA link on the navbar and adding a new link for this page. However, I don't think that a link called "Issue Tracking" sufficiently distinguishes this page from JIRA. Can we come up with a better name? Maybe "Issues by Release"?? "Issue Status"??


Issue Status by Release? Or is that too long?


Re Michael's question 2, the navbar that shows on the attached html page is in a separate source file which I have not yet modified, pending a decision on the name(s) of the link(s).

I fixed the typos in the *final* filter names.

I used the verbose "Issues resolved and closed as fixed in ..." rather than Craig's more elegant phrasing because I thought we, by convention, only assigned a release on closing.


I think that was before we were completely clear on the process. But now I don't know that we have decided when issues get closed.

Anyway, I think that accuracy would be "Issues resolved in..." instead of "closed in...".

Maybe that was before we got our processes worked out, I'm not sure anymore. In any case the two "Issues Resolved..." filters only show issues that are closed, not ones that are merely resolved. Should I change that?


When should issues be closed? I'll file a question to the JIRA experts and let this alias know what I get back.

Add links to site to JIRA filters for open and closed issues by release --------------------------------------------------------------------- --

         Key: JDO-363
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-363
     Project: JDO
        Type: Task


  Components: site and infrastructure
    Reporter: Michelle Caisse
    Assignee: Michelle Caisse
 Attachments: bugtrackiing.html

Add links from the JDO web site to the JIRA page to do calculations of the open and closed issues by release. Must first ake sure that all JIRA issues have a "resolved in release" entry. Might have to reopen some JIRA issues just to add this info.
