It's an old philosophical debate, with no end in sight, and I don't
want to delve into it deeply.

JIRA is free for FOSS projects to use, but it itself is not a free
product in general.  If you wanted to use it for your company, you'd
have to pay.  Some of us feel that we should set somewhat of an
example (in the areas or purity or hard-core-ness, or
whatever-have-you) here at the ASF by using FOSS products where
possible.

Of course then you get into technical merits, and JIRA is probably
better in most areas, but the debate continues.

So as I said I'm not -1, I wouldn't object if everyone else on the PMC
wanted to migrate to JIRA and at least one person had the time to take
the lead on the effort.

huh? its free for open source projects, I thought JIRA was widely used
within the ASF, why wouldn't we?
