RE: FpML-AWG JIRA

It seems the way to go. We’ll discuss it within ISDA and we’ll start the process.

I did not advocate Jira, but now you ask, IMHO is a very similar but slightly better tool because:

Easier management
Better UI
It is increasinly standard/familiar for users
One less username/password for ISDA (today we have 4: ISDA, FpML, svn, mantis)

Although I never actually adminstered Mantis, I'm guessing you get a lot more control with JIRA: you can control users, user groups, email alerts, security schemes, issues states, issue resolutions and version numbers to name but a few. And it can generate release notes.

And I just noticed you can automatically import from Mantis.

We use it too in Miley Watts. Improvements are all of those things, plus
the ability to customise the issues, issues states, and workflow (in the
enterprise edition). Also, the ability to integrate with the Confluence
enterprise Wiki, to which you would also be able to get a free licence if
Atlassian were granting FpML a free JIRA licence.

Familiarity is also an advantage of JIRA; quite a number of us seem to use
it regularly in our companies. I don't think any of us use Mantis
regularly outside of FpML (but tell me if I'm wrong).

Cheers, Tony.
