+1 to #cassandra-tickets.
Also +1 to keeping Cassandra-dev human messages only and moving automation to 
separate more focused channels like #cassandra-noise, #cassandra-tickets or 
#cassandra-jira-summary etc.

+1 to a new channel with just create and close.  I also am in the group of 
people who think #cassandra-noise is too much to follow and appreciate the 
lower volume that is in #cassandra-dev.  Perfectly happy to follow that in a 
new channel.  That would actually be nice, as you can track you state looking 
over tickets separately from keeping up with conversations.  Thanks for 
bringing this up.

I would also create a cassandra-tickets channel and move it there. I also 
consider cassandra-noise too noisy already for that.

I actually have QBot notifications starred so new tickets show up on my phone's 
lock screen when they're created. I can find other ways to solve that problem 
though. :)

#cassandra-tickets works for me if it's too noisy in dev.

At first, I had similar thoughts as you, Mick, but then I thought that I would 
still want to see when some old ticket is getting attention. Not sure how to 
get something in between cassandra-noise and the newly suggested 
cassandra-tickets.

Maybe Bernardo is into something, daily updates sounds tempting. Even just to 
say which tickets were updated/created/closed. I am curious to hear more about 
the mentioned prototype.

Best regards,
Ekaterina

I get value from seeing just the created/closed ticket bot msgs.
But I have no objection to creating another channel just for that, e.g. 
cassandra-tickets
