Organize JIRA Board

[André Santi Oliveira]

Hi,

I'm interested in collaborating with Mahout project and I've followed the
process to build Mahout from the source and so far it looks like everything
is working well.

Then I jumped into your JIRA board and it looks like you need some help to
organize that part. Simple things I saw which could be organized like:

- Tickets with pull requests available but not linked to the ticket
- Tickets with status "open" and assigned by people (probably the default
when we create tickets)
- Sprint from 2016 still open with no content inside
- Sprint name not matching with initial/end date
- and so on...

I really like this part of organizing things and I believe I can start help
on that. But to help you with this I need a specific access to JIRA (more
than a simple user that can just create tickets and put comments).

Let me know what you think and if you need more information to trust me on
that.


Cheers,

Hi Andre,

That sounds great.

We need to talk to INFRA about how to get you permissions.

Will let you know shortly,

The access is working well and thanks for the tips.

My first approach, for some cases, will be to contact people to get more
information before to take actions on the ticket.
Like that, I can see if comments, re-assign or other actions will be
necessary.

I'll check what I can do in this case of the overlap. Maybe it'll be
necessary to contact other groups but I'm ready to help on that as well.

In case you don't agree with the actions I'm taking, please feel free to
give feedback as I'm totally open to it.


Cheers,
André

Andre,
I agree with Trevor, this would be great. You've been added to the

- Tickets with status "open" and assigned by people (probably the default
when we create tickets)

We don't have a default asignee currently; the default when creating a
ticket is "unassigned"

- Sprint from 2016 still open with no content inside
- Sprint name not matching with initial/end date

We've been unable to delete some of the sprint boards, since they some
happen to overlap other projects, due to the way that ASF Jira is
configured. This is something that we've had to co-ordinate with INFRA for
,so you may need to discuss some issues with them.
This would be a great help for the project.
Thanks very much.

Hi,

I've some questions...

- Are sprints created based on what? release, month, another thing?
- Epics like 0.13.0 RELEASE are removed after the release is done? Why
don't we have previews versions available in Epics?


In terms of permissions that I have... I realize there are more options
available than before, like edit a ticket, epics, etc, but there are
limitations like:
- I cannot change the status of stories (like these ones
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-2024,
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-1956 which I would like to
close as they were already merged
- I'm not able to create new sprints as it's saying I need Manage Sprints
permission. Of course, I'll try to solve the two ones which are open before
to create a new one, but it's still a limitation a can see in advance


Thanks in advance,
André
