Automatically pull Jira version info?

[jhult]

Does it make sense to automatically build from the latest version info from the Atlassian website?

These feeds could be used:

• https://my.atlassian.com/download/feeds/current/jira-core.json
• https://my.atlassian.com/download/feeds/current/jira-software.json
• https://my.atlassian.com/download/feeds/current/jira-servicedesk.json

Does not make sense. There are no suitable integration tests in place.

Here is how others are doing it (just as an FYI): https://github.com/cptactionhank/docker-atlassian-jira

I'm not saying we should or should not implement this. Just posing the question for discussion.

Then we also need someone being able to maintain those integration tests.

If I can share my point of view/experience: this community is nicely active (greatly thanks to @blacklabelops !) because they participate to upgrades. They do so because there is no automation. Just look at what happened on cptactionhank's images: the integration tests have not been working for a while, and no one stepped in for a long time (not sure whether someone has yet) to fix it, because of lack of involvement.

Hence I would argue: don't automate !!! A keep the community interacting.

My 2 cents/pence.

Interaction and participation makes this repository great. I would love to see more discussion and people interacting and contributing.

If anyone contributes to automation, that's wonderful. My hands are full keeping all my repositories rolling, everybody is welcome to contribute.
