Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk community services - Old Mantis instance
to be shutdown on Aug 28th, 2012
Guys,
Is it possible to leave the Mantis on permanently?
It allows to productively search and work with issues recorded in it.
Search, convenient straight forward layout, patch download URLs,
everything just works there.
JIRA maybe is convenient for the management and developers. I just
guess, as somebody must have loved it so it was chosen as a Mantis
replacement. But for an ordinary user (in my opinion) it is
cumbersome
and unfriendly.
Sorry, but no. Infrastructure costs time, money, and effort by folks
who have to keep the system running. You may not always see the problems -
but they do happen, and Mantis certainly complicates all sorts of other
pieces of the infrastructure puzzle.
URLs that previously resolved to Mantis issues should automatically resolve
to the JIRA issue that replaced them. I'm sorry you don't care for JIRA,
but its the system we use now and its highly unlikely that we will migrate
away from it anytime soon.
I can understand Digium not wanting to spend time, money and effort,
which is understandable.
Thinking out loud, if the open source community still see value in the
old mantis data, could we not hand it over for somebody else to manage?
I'm sure we could find somebody to donate the bandwidth.
