This seems a very workable approach - going through Jira for everything
is too much work on the part of the contributer. I'll use that as the
submission policy for Deltacloud from now on:

      * Patch submittes must have a CLA on file
      * Patches need to go to the dev@ list (and be ACK'd there)
      * In some cases, we might ask the submitter to put the patch into
        Jira (e.g., for large contributions)

Only tangentially related: is there a way to make subversion (especially
via git-svn) distinguish between a committer and an author ? That would
help keep the patch submission trail much more transparent.
