Mich, yes, the goal is to make it easier for folks to contribute to the Go client, and my discussion is related to the https://github.com/apache/spark-connect-go repository only and thanks a lot for the feedback. My assumption is that we will monitor the GH issues in the same way as we do for the Jira issues (e.g. they can go to the same mailing list etc) The feedback that you provided is really helpful as it outlines what we have to do for release management of the Go client as well.
Sean, according to https://infra.apache.org/services.html#issue-tracking projects can use JIRA and GH issues, see as well here for the self-serve instructions - https://infra.apache.org/request-bug-tracker.html Please keep the feedback coming.
