[Laszlo-dev] Jira workflow/etiquette reminder

Just a gentle reminder.  Please remember to follow our workflow and "Jira etiquette" as described here:

  http://wiki.openlaszlo.org/Issue_Tracking

when you are checking in.  Two things I cannot emphasize enough:

1)  When you fill out the "Bugs Fixed:" field of the change form, please list _both_ the bug number _and_ the bug Summary line from Jira.  It's too easy to make a type-oh in the bug number.  If you copy the summary too, we have a better chance of figuring out the actual bug.

2)  When you actually check in your change, the tool writes out the log file for you.  Please copy that log into a comment in the bug so we have a "double check" on where and when the bug is supposed to be fixed.

(I know these two steps should be automated.  Anyone is welcome to take a crack at it.  Until then, please try to remember to maintain these cross-references by hand.)
