RE: [mylar-dev] Cool stuff!

["Alef Arendsen" <alef.arendsen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

All,

Like I said, I'd be happy to contribute to the integration of for example
JIRA. The problem is that I'd definitely like to spend a lot of time, but I
already know that I'm way to involved in Spring development and other things
already. I'd like to introduce Erik Wiersma, a colleague of mine who's been
doing a lot of integration work with JIRA already, so he should know his way
around. We looked at Mylar together and he's just as excited as I am ;-).

I'm already using Mylar in my day-to-day development and will certainly keep
on sending my ideas to the list.

Regards,
Alef
