Migrating Bugzilla bugs to JIRA

Is there an established process for creating new issues in JIRA that already exist in the old Bugzilla, once they have been confirmed to still exist in Apache NetBeans 9.0 Beta? (I didn't find mention of this at https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Submitting+issues+in+JIRA ) A

Could this be a case of someone importing java.sql.Date by accident when only java.util.Date is needed? In JDK8 this would not cause an immediate problem, but JDK9 might have moved the java.sql.* classes to a separate now-inaccessible module. On 3/28/18, 10:06 AM, "Antonio" wrote: >Mmmm java
