I claim it does both.

I'm *really* interested in ongoing Lucene development, but I can't take
following the Lucene dev list via email any more. The signal-to-noise ratio
is horrible.

It's a daily tsunami of trivia, redundant quotes, bloated diffs and butchered
titles. (And then there are the dozens of Jenkins failure notifications, but
I've figured out how to filter those.)
For what it's worth, I recently considered exploring Apache Avro (the C
implementation interests me), but the Avro dev list is similarly impenetrable
and I gave up. Maybe I'll try again later...
JIRA has its strengths, but its integration into mailing-list style
development leaves much to be desired.

Sure. In a similar vein, there has been discussion about tighter integration
with Github. We've been sending GitHub pull request notifications to ASF dev
lists for a while now, and there's talk of mirroring pull request comments as
well. If we handle the integration of Github comments as poorly as JIRA
notifications, the potential exists to force new users to to learn Github's
API in order to participate fully.
