I think It's just a matter of declaring a custom field (say "Patch Available") through Jira Admin.

And then by creating a custom work-flow element.

This tutorial shows how to create a mail sending plugin.

Do you know how to get JIRA to send out a weekly report for this?

Hi all,

Wouldn't it be helpful to automate this? i.e. have Jira send out an email periodically listing the issues with patches available? We can add a checkbox field to an issue, so that a patch submitter can check it to notify the system that a patch is available.
