Re: [mylar-dev] Cool stuff! 
Mik,

  Maybe it would be possible to do such migration/merge incrementally?
At first move only minimal part of issue-tracking repos view (individual issues and registered queries without any details), new repos wizard and minimum extension points for 3rd party providers and integration with mylar... I believe these things are primarily reside in Jeff's plugins. Then somebody can merge other functionality and all bugzilla improvements. 

  regards,
  Eugene

We can't directly use Jeff's Bugzilla plug-in because the core Mylar
plug-ins can't have dependences beyond the Eclipse SDK.  That's not to say
that we couldn't create another plug-in that integrated them.  But there are
major redundancies between the two tools and what is becoming increasingly
clear is that we should merge them.  Although Jeff expressed interest in
doing that, he can not commit many cycles to Bugzilla plug-in development
this fall.

On our end, Shawn is busy with grad courses right now and not able to spend
much time on mylar.bugzilla.  Without additional contribution the only
progress I see us making on this in the next couple of months is to add
support for multiple Bugzilla repositories.

So I think that whoever signs up to contributing additional repository
support gets to dictate how it proceeds.  If Alef wants to contribute JIRA
tasks and queries we'll support him closely doing that.  If Jeff or someone
else wants to merge the plug-ins we'll support that.  If in the process
anyone makes a substantial contribution (e.g. support for a new bug system)
they'll earn a vote to grant them commit rights on that component.

  Copying here from 109905 issue.

  As been discussed for issue 102848 it would make a lot of sense to
implement JIRA provider for issue tracking plugin owned by Jeff Pound -
http://people.redhat.com/jpound/  It already has extendable architecture
(initially implemented by Eclipse Team plugin developers) and it would
be a better integration point if Mylar would allow to select
issues/queries from issue-tracking repositories registered in this plugin.

  See more at https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=102848
(should this issue have dependency on that one?)

  regards,
  Eugene

Thanks Alef, that's really great to hear.  We've been doing most feature
planning on bug reports, and the following bugzilla query will bring


them


up.  I would love to brainstorm about any ideas that you come up with,
either on specific reports or on this list.

A contribution of JIRA integration would have huge value for Mylar


because


the Task List is way more useful when your tasks are linked to the issue
tracking repository.  The Bugzilla plug-in currently extends the task


list


via extension points and a bit of API and JIRA support could do the


same,


staged something like this:

1) Make it possible to add JIRA issues by ID to task list categories,
contributing actions for creation, deletion, and opening with the


internal


browser.
2) Add support for JIRA query categories.  The easiest way to do this
might
be to generalize our query execution support from ..mylar.bugzilla.ui to
..mylar.tasklists.
3) Integrate JIRA issue operations, such as adding comments and
attachments,
into an Eclipse editor that could be based off our current Bugzilla
editor.

(1) should be a fairly straightforward and well-scoped task, but first


it


would be great to get your feedback on how you would like the JIRA


support


to work.  Please comment on the following report:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=109905

Cheers,

Mik

Mik,

after I saw the flash demo, I immediately tried out the preview
release and I have to say; this is looking really promising! Is there
a list of planned features for Mylar or a way I can let you know any
ideas that I might have?

If my schedule permits, I'll certainly have a look at contributing
something back, such as JIRA integration (or is this something you're
looking at already)?

regards,
Alef Arendsen
