I think the mailing list is only really significant if you want to use
it for reviews (which is where Skara would help, since it makes the
bridge between GitHub and the mailing list automatic). As for the bug
database, historically Cacio predates the public Jira OpenJDK, so we
always used our own bugzilla:

https://icedtea.classpath.org/bugzilla/describecomponents.cgi?product=Caciocavallo

I would be happy to hand you the "keys".

I see the org name has already been taken though, did you guys already grab this by chance?

I didn't, and I don't think Roman did either, we should probably
contact GitHub and see who owns that and if they are willing to
release it.

I don't think there's any problem in changing it, although for
historical reasons we may want to keep it the same. If you refactor
the group id you should also change the packages though, for
consistency.

Cheers,
Mario
