funny - I would hate having to track down progress across this many jira projects (thats one area where jira sucks).

In JBoss Tools we currently run a mixed model to avoid too much fragmentation, i.e. JBIDE has *all* components listed for easy bugreporting but a few of them (jbpm, drools, ..) have separate jira because of different release cycles.

Would I like to go to project per module ? Yes, but not until jira gets cross-project tracking and that we don't have to coexist within a UI that lists 50+ projects that all start with the same prefix

Not saying, your decision is wrong - just saying i'm looking forward to hear how it goes.

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.
