Hi Gerald, all, I like that idea and it would work for me: It allows to indicate to release management that an item is being worked on outside of a release and gives the individual projects more flexibility in defining non-release related tasks.

I understand David's concern that we should be able to identify issues that are not assigned with a fixVersion as someone had forgotten to do so vs. issues that are on purpose not assigned to the current release. @Marc: could we update the Jira such that the fixVersion is a "mandatory" field when creating a new issue?

Sub-tasks are always associated with a specific story and tracked that way. As for tasks, those usually indicate out of band (ie: non release) work that is to be done. Just my $0.02...

Is there a perceived issue around having tasks that are not planned as part of a specific release? It may even be that there are tasks that are being tracked in Jira that are not intended to be tracked to a release process. (Lab tickets, wiki updates etc...) I'm not sure we should be terribly concerned with % of tasks intended to be completed as part of a release process or not. We may also have projects that choose not to participate in a release at this stage that wish to use Jira which would further impact that % figure. Assigning something to "future release" indicates it does not have a desired timeline which may not be the case, I don't know that is the right way to address this. Maybe we should focus our release metrics on tasks that are intended to be completed as part of a release activity. Leave other "non-release related" Jira tasks out of those metrics. / Chris From: <opnfv-tech-discuss-boun...@lists.opnfv.org<mailto:opnfv-tech-discuss-boun...@lists.opnfv.org>> on behalf of David McBride <dmcbr...@linuxfoundation.org<mailto:dmcbr...@linuxfoundation.org>> Date: Monday 29 August 2016 at 20:46 To: "morgan.richo...@orange.com<mailto:morgan.richo...@orange.com>" <morgan.richo...@orange.com<mailto:morgan.richo...@orange.com>> Cc: opnfv-project-leads <opnfv-project-le...@lists.opnfv.org<mailto:opnfv-project-le...@lists.opnfv.org>>, TECH-DISCUSS OPNFV <opnfv-tech-discuss@lists.opnfv.org<mailto:opnfv-tech-discuss@lists.opnfv.org>> Subject: Re: [opnfv-tech-discuss] [release][jira] JIRA process status report Hi Morgan, Sorry - I should have been more clear. When I say "assigned", I mean "assigned to a release" (i.e. the "fix version" field is NOT empty).

As far as I can read I found only 14 JIRAs non assigned, all the others are assigned. For me, "assigned" means there is one person in the Assignee field, am I wrong? the non assigned JIRA corresponded to: - D release - Epic: generic topic for which we do not necessarily assign someone, e.g. FUNCTEST-88 is the EPIC linked to documentation. JIRA tasks/bugs are created under this EPIC, all these JIRAs are assigned the umbrella EPIC was not. As Epic does not appear in board/backlogs, I forgot to close some. /Morgan Le 26/08/2016 à 22:59, David McBride a écrit : Team, Some updates for this week's report: 1. My script will how automatically add any missing versions to your project, so you no longer need to worry about that task. To be clear, the script simply makes the version strings available for selection in your project. It does not assign any issues to those versions. 2. The script also now determines the ratio of unresolved issues to total issues assigned to the current release (i.e. Colorado 1.0) Observations: * The percentage of projects with no unassigned issues improved slightly from 15% to 25% since my first report. o However, this still means that 3/4 of OPNFV projects still have unassigned issues. We cannot do meaningful analysis of progress without knowing which version issues are assigned. o Note that all projects now have the "Future Release" version string. So, if you do not plan to resolve an issue for the current release, and you aren't sure that you will do it in the next release, then assign it to "Future Release". * We are less than one month out from the Colorado 1.0 release, yet there are a startling large number of issues assigned to the release that are unresolved. o Please make sure that you are updating the status of your JIRA issues whenever there is a relevant change. Don't let fixed issues remain reported as unresolved in JIRA. This creates a lot of ambiguity when trying to understand the status of the project. o For issues assigned to Colorado 1.0 that you don't believe will be resolved by the release date, you should start reassigning those to Colorado 2.0, or some other future release. Our goal is to have zero issues assigned to Colorado 1.0 by the date of the release. Don't wait until the last minute to move the issues. o Alternatively, if you believe that an issue is no longer relevant or important, then simply close it. If you're wrong and the issue is important enough, then it will resurface. In the mean time, there's no use in suffering the overhead. Let me know if you have any comments or questions. -- David McBride Release Manager, OPNFV Mobile: +1.805.276.8018<tel:%2B1.805.276.8018> Email/Google Talk: dmcbr...@linuxfoundation.org<mailto:dmcbr...@linuxfoundation.org> Skype: davidjmcbride1 IRC: dmcbride _______________________________________________ opnfv-tech-discuss mailing list opnfv-tech-discuss@lists.opnfv.org<mailto:opnfv-tech-discuss@lists.opnfv.org> https://lists.opnfv.org/mailman/listinfo/opnfv-tech-discuss -- Morgan Richomme Orange/ IMT/ OLN/ CNC/ NCA/ SINA Network architect for innovative services Future of the Network community member Open source Orange community manager tel. +33 (0) 296 072 106 mob. +33 (0) 637 753 326 morgan.richo...@orange.com<mailto:morgan.richo...@orange.com> _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Ce message et ses pieces jointes peuvent contenir des informations confidentielles ou privilegiees et ne doivent donc pas etre diffuses, exploites ou copies sans autorisation.
