+1
- JIRA's UI is not too bad but let's remember that while we use it
since years, others might not feel comfortable with it
- many of those receiving our "dist" package might not have internet
access at all
- the dist packages is long term archived, like we include sources it
should contain a snapshot of all state. I like JIRA but who knows how
long it will be there?
