I'm going to side step the "use jira to generate changes.txt debate, and
focus on what i think is the broader problem with a simpler fix.
FWIW, i like CHANGES.txt myself, i think the jira generate pages
compliment it, and give you a differnet view of the same info, but i
prefer CHANGES.txt bec

I was going by what Uwe said :)
But if indeed we can make our own fields, this seems like a great
solution? We could add a CHANGES entry field, and a maybe a CHANGES
category ("New feature", "Bug fix", "API change", "Back-compat
exception", etc.)?

On Tue, Dec 7, 2010 at 8:53 PM, Mattmann,
Hey Mike real quick I'm not sure what you mean by not having full control over
JIRA. I know that you can customize the field types, issue types etc. You just
ask infra and they take care of enabling perms for whomever would like to
manage this for the project.
Cheers,
Chris

Can't we add a field? I see we already h
Both approaches have tradeoffs...
I love that the CHANGES today is carefully edited and as a result very
consumable to users. The verbiage we put into a CHANGES entry is
necessarily different from the title we put into Jira since it's a
different audience.
But I don't like the confusion over whi
Jumping in late to this thread, though I've read most of it.
As a user and committer, I find the current CHANGES very convenient!
It's very easy for me to read what has changed in 3.0, and very easy
for me to put a CHANGES entry whenever I work on something that
warrants such entry.
And if an iss

If you have full control on your Jira installation, you could define a custom
field named "changes entry and credits". This field could be used for a report.
But we have no separate installation to have all control.

Hi Steven,
Yep, like you state below JIRA *could* be configured to deal with this.
In all honesty, putting tons of thought and effort into how to precisely deal
with the changes you specify below might be somewhat overkill.

Hi Robert,
True, JIRA isn't a perfect solution for this matter, but works good enough
usually since many times (especially with prodding) those same users who report
the bugs are those that report the JIRA issues.

Hi Mark,
RE: the credit system. JIRA provides a contribution report here, like this one
that I generated for Lucene 3.1:

I like this idea myself - it would encourage better JIRA summaries and
reduce duplication.
It's easy to keep a mix of old and new too - keep the things that Grant
mentions in CHANGES.txt (back compat migration, misc info), but you can
also just export a text Changes from JIRA at release and ad
I think we should drop the item by item change list and instead focus on 3
things:
1. Prose describing the new features (see Tika's changes file for instance) and
things users should pay special attention to such as when they might need to
re-index.
2. Calling out explicit compatibility breaks
So, going forward...
When committing an issue that needs a changes entry, where are we
supposed to put it?
EG if it's a bug fix that we'll backport all the way to 2.9.x... where
does it go?
If it's a new feature/API that's going to 3.x and trunk... only in
3.x's CHANGES?

Hi all,
when merging changes done in 2.9.4/3.0.3 with current 3.x and trunk I found
out that 3.x changes differ immense between the trunk changes.txt and the
3.x changes.txt. Some entries are missing in the 3.x branch, but are
available in trunk's 3.x part or other entries using new trunk class na
