[seam-dev] Seam JIRA for Seam 3

[Pete Muir]

People,

We still need an issue tracker for tracking common Seam tasks:

* Build infrastructure
* Common documentation
* Shared examples
* Simultaneous release tasks
* A dumping ground for "new-users" to put issues which they don't know where they belong (it's then up to us to triage them to the correct place).

As we've diverged so much from Seam 2, I propose we create a new project in JIRA, SEAM, and keep JBSEAM for Seam 2 issues. This should reduce cross-over confusion between the two codebases' issues. It also has the nice sideeffect of allowing us to get rid of the unneeded JB prefix ;-)

If anyone disagrees, speak up. Otherwise I'll ask Rodney to do this later today.

We also plan a "bundle release" at regular intervals, which takes all the modules, and provides a single stack that are tested to work well together.
