Hi all,
Currently we only register issues related to the OFBiz code. But we also see a lot of comments in wiki pages regarding corrections. These comments can exists quite a long time and it seems that these are frequently overlooked. Should we not also have a setup in JIRA regarding the web and wiki pages? This helps us to stay aware of bugs and improvements thereof, and help us to track contributors and patches. Having JIRA issues for this seems to be done also in a number of other Apache projects.

It would be good to have a well organized and supported system for
tracking defects of all types including documentation. The JIRA has a very very helpful features that would allow us to identify the importance of problems, any version dependencies, assigned person, etc. Ron On 21/10/2014 7:45 AM, Pierre Smits wrote: > Hi all, > > Currently we only register issues related to the OFBiz code.

I believe, the problem is more about people not knowing where to post things, else of course Jira is a perfect fit.
Though I (hopefully I'm not alone) normally monitor Confluence (including comments) but https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-8323 Anyway I normally receive all changes by mail. Pierre, do you have something specific in mind about overlooked comments, I mean a list, etc.?

Also please read my comment to Julien about how to handle changes in not open Confluence spaces: http://markmail.org/message/yk2l3d22qenipqwz It's easier for committers than to have to check multi-places :/ Of course when those comments are about issues in code Jiras should be opened Jacques > > Pierre, do you have something specific in mind about overlooked comments, I mean a list, etc.? > > Jacques > > Le 21/10/2014 14:43, Ron Wheeler a écrit : >> It would be good to have a well organized and supported system for tracking defects of all types including documentation. >> The JIRA has a very very helpful features that would allow us to identify the importance of problems, any version dependencies, assigned person, etc. >> >> Ron >> >> On 21/10/2014 7:45 AM, Pierre Smits wrote: >>> Hi all, >>> >>> Currently we only register issues related to the OFBiz code.

In reply to this post by Jacques Le Roux
Jacques,
The problem is indeed where to post the issues. There is no solution available to do patches to pages in the website and improvement comments in the restricted spaces are all over the place. And regarding the latter aspect these comments can stay visible for quite some time due to busy schedules (and other interests) of those capable to implement the changes. Having those comments there for a longer time is not good regarding branding and adoption. Having a JIRA setup for the website and restricted spaces will provide the one place and will create insights about what is still open, what is fixed and and when. Plus it helps identifying those committers that could become committers. All in all not a bad suggestion and improvement.

I don't see a need to change that.

If there are important things to tackle in Confluence which are neglected then of course the way is to create a Jira task type issue. I will add a Confluence component option for this (in Jira only of course!).
