# Issue and Bug Tracking # {#issues}

Each project uses their own [issue tracker](http://issues.apache.org/) to 
track bugs, requests, and other action items - typically JIRA or BugZilla.
Every Apache project decides how to track issues, so see each [project
website](http://projects.apache.org/indexes/quick.html) to find how 
they track issues.

# Mailing Lists # {#mail}

- Please read the [Public Forum Archive Policy](/foundation/public-archives.html) before posting on any Apache mailing list!

- [Subscription instructions and netiquette](/foundation/mailinglists.html) for all Apache mailing lists.

- All Apache projects have their own [set of project-specific mailing lists](http://projects.apache.org/indexes/quick.html) 

- There are [some other non-project](/foundation/mailinglists.html) mailing lists
(e.g. legal-discuss@ and community@ and various announcement lists).

-  [Privacy notes](/foundation/mailinglists.html) about non-public lists
and about [balancing confidentiality and public
discussion](/foundation/how-it-works.html#confidential).

-  [Guide for new project contributors](contributors)

-  [Email etiquette tips for contributors](contrib-email-tips) 

-  How to [moderate Apache mailing lists](committers.html#mail-moderate) 

-  All Apache mailing lists are archived:
    - Read most Apache [list archives on mail-archives.apache.org](http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/) by going to the specific project list, then append the mbox filename to the URL (e.g. [mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/httpd-dev/201210.mbox](mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/httpd-dev/201210.mbox))
    - Raw mbox archive files are available for every mailing list.
    - Each project website has a "mail" directory, e.g. [httpd.apache.org/mail/](http://httpd.apache.org/mail/)
(see [notes](/dev/project-site.html#mail)).
    - For top-level/non-project mailing lists see [www.apache.org/mail/](http://www.apache.org/mail/) directory.

# Pasting data to others # {#paste}

Apache provides a paste bin service for committers to use at [https://paste.apache.org](https://paste.apache.org).

Anyone can view the pastes (except those marked 'committers only'), but only committers are allowed to paste new data on the site.

# Apache URL Shortener Service # {#shorten}

Infrastructure hosts the [s.apache.org URL shortening service](https://s.apache.org/) 
for our committers.  When including URLs in PMC reports, please use this service and 
not other URL shorteners.
