Hi - Thanks Peter for driving this topic. I don’t think we all agree, but we can (a) try to advance our project organization and (b) acknowledge how we are using the many tools we already use.

(1) Bug/Issue Trackers available from the ASF. (a) Bugzilla - OpenOffice has a dedicated instance as does SpamAssassin while many projects share a third. (b) JIRA - Atlassian has provided a free license to the ASF. Not all plugins may be available. If one is missing then it will need negotiation. (2) Wikis available from the ASF. (a) MediaWiki. This wiki is supported by the AOO PMC and came over as a legacy from OpenOffice.org. (b) Confluence. (Again Atlassian provided free license) This is hosted by the ASF and the project has two available for organizing various tasks. We used these pretty extensively during migration to organize work. (c) MoinMoin. Also hosted by the ASF - a more old school wiki. Used by the Incubator and others. > >> PS: >> I just wantot repeat a sentence from above: >> >> I'm not totally pro or contra your proposal.

I would suggest Confluence, but that is my personal preference. We already have tools deployed. I think we just need to manage a table from time to time. Periodically we can “Scrum” on dev@ over the status. > > I think I did this one wrong, because I started of what I would like to do > and got into a confrontation role, which I did not want to.

So we are clear you are looking to have a high/medium level overview of tasks and status towards goals. I think this can be a table in a wiki. > > I thank you all for the open discussion and the shown courage to speak up. I > believe that these are values that make us work together.
