Very. I actually shilled for Atlassian earlier this month I'm so happy. It's bar none the best solution I've used so far.

Thanks Ontic. Also, found that it works better to open the xls directly within the word mail merge rather than creating an odbc data source for the excel file.

Cheers! Great suggestion.

Jesse - You need to open the jira XLS export, and remove the top two rows which span all the columns. Also delete the JPG logo which in my instance shows up as a blank X box. Then you can merge on the document.

John,
I don't think so, but you should check. You can play with greenpepper's Jira instance yourself: http://greenpeppersoftware....

I do know that I can't seem to get the ranking to export to excel.

So I have a question about Greenhopper (which I've been admiring from a distance). Can it's "Ranking" custom field be used in normal JIRA filters? We have a legacy app that we need to track bugs in, and the lack of forced ranking in core JIRA is a real pain.

The "paper vs. electronic" debate has bugged me ever since I got involved in agile techniques. We use stickies for speed now, but then bang them into JIRA for tracking. But it would be great, in theory, to use something like Greenhopper to go back and forth between the two mediums :-)
