Well, I spent a bit of time browsing through our Jira and I found some interesting tickets: * http://www.crosswire.org/tracker/browse/MOD-290 ... this is completely unactionable ticket. Could we get update on the current status of these modules? There should be some tool to file tickets blocking this one for all individual modules which need an attention. * http://www.crosswire.org/tracker/browse/MOD-289 ... "A new module version 2.0 has been made and has been tested in both Xiphos 3.2.2 and PocketSword 1.4.6 The module, together with updated USFM files and a valid OSIS XML file has been sent to Peter to be uploaded to our main repo." That's 2014-12-13 ... what is the current status? * many many tickets like http://www.crosswire.org/tracker/browse/MOD-293, http://www.crosswire.org/tracker/browse/MOD-287 and many others ... if we had sources for our modules available in some VCS, volunteers could help fixing small issues like this (with possible approval before publishing, some of these are just rebuilds with current tools). We don’t have publicly available sources, and we don’t have maintainers of individual modules, so the result is that nobody does anything (because few people who has access to modules are completely overwhelmed, I guess). Also, it should be deduplicated with another requests for rebuild of some modules (e.g., http://www.crosswire.org/tracker/browse/MOD-166, http://www.crosswire.org/tracker/browse/MOD-264 and many others). * looking at http://www.crosswire.org/tracker/browse/MOD-248 we should continue working on using automated processing of the available open sources (although with MHCC the sitaution is really silly … CCEL created with help of volunteers complete edition, only to hide the ThML sources behind the paywall, so now https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Author:Matthew_Henry have to do whole work again; grrr). I have CzeBKR done from WikiSource sources, but I believe the process should continue whenever possible. * Also, it may be worthy of consideration, whether we shouldn't switch to one subcomponent (https://blogs.atlassian.com/2013/11/organize-jira-issues-subcomponents/) per module, so that we could for example collect all MHCC tickets in one place and somebody updating the module could see all tickets she should deal with.
