Ignite Realtime Issue Tracker Migration to Atlassian Cloud

The Ignite Realtime community has been happily using tools provided by Atlassian over the years thanks to their generous no-cost licensing to Open Source development projects like ours. These tools include issue tracking by Jira, user management by Crowd, and continuous integration by Bamboo. These tools run within our AWS Cloud presence kindly supported by Surevine. You may be aware the Atlassian recently announced a move to discontinue self-hosted Jira installs in favor of their Jira Cloud offering. Generously, they are making this service free for projects like us to use.

So we have migrated our Jira instance to the Atlassian Cloud and you can now find our issue tracker at https://igniterealtime.atlassian.net. Our previous URL will automatically redirect to this cloud website and thankfully, previous URLs referenced in various places will continue to function.

If you have any issues accessing Jira, please chime in here or direct message me via this very online forum. Thanks again to Atlassian for offering this valuable service to the Open Source Community.

That was a real labor of love for the community. We appreciate it. Thank you @akrherz

Thank you for your time and efforts.
May God bless you!

Btw, i don’t remember if in the old system it was only my personal dashboard, but i have recreated it as a system dashboard in the cloud version. It can be accessed by this link https://igniterealtime.atlassian.net/secure/Dashboard.jspa
It shows latest activity, new tickets from the last day, tickets assigned to you and also roadmap (which i use mostly to get to the tickets assigned to some version quickly).
I have also added familiar icons to major projects and branding at the top :slight_smile:
