Hi folks!

shortly after AeroGear.org project was started, and different technologies and scopes were added, we started to reflect that with multiple different JIRA instances. For instance besides the canonical AEROGEAR instance we have a bunch of them for iOS (AGIOS), Android (AGDROID), All things Push (AGPUSH)* or Cordova (AGCORDOVA), to name only a few.

I am proposing to retire all instances and start using only the AEROGEAR instance.

In Push, we had similar discussion, we had different instances for simplepush, ups and webpush; For sanity we ended up running all things in AGPUSH, and using components and better version strings (e.g. simplepush-1.0.0 or ups-1.2.4). And this works great

So, I think it does make sense to stop hammering new issues into all the different "technology silos", like AGDROID or AGPUSH. Instead I really think we should unify one JIRA instance, with proper components and much better version strings, allowing us to really use one instance for all of AeroGear.

Today, to me, it does look a bit that our multiple instances of JIRA can be really done w/ one JIRA (and components/versions) instead - we don't really have much more value w/ all the different instances.

I'd like to retire the new instances, in the near future, moving forward with just one JIRA instance. At some point - later this year - we could than try to delete the other redundant JIRA silos.

Before retiring the instances, we will review the existing backlogs and port over valid tickets. So no relevant ticket will be lost, and outdated tickets kinda gets cleaned up, doing this excercise :-) 

Feedback, thoughts, tomatos ?

-Matthias

Unification will be awesome. 
I have logged issues on the wrong project so many times.  
It will help also with new platforms like ReactNative - we currently link that to JS project, which is not accurate.
