Proposal: Move to Alertmanager.

[bwplotka]

Given the popularity and use, I would like to propose pushing this code to Alertmanager notify package.

I got information AM maintainers will consider this (:

We need, however, maintainer for this notifier. Any volunteers? (:

[bwplotka]

We also need official maintainer. I can co-maintain, but we need someone else to own this, so looking for volunteers (:

@bwplotka What's involved with being the maintainer? I'm open to being co-maintainer at least.

[bwplotka]

Just a general review of related PRs, issues and security fixes (:

Thanks, noted! Are you on the cncf slack?

[twotired]

I am there, in the #jiralert channel

[raonisiann]

I can help as maintainer as well if you still needed. I joined on slack channel #jiraalert

[holger-waschke]

I can help as maintainer aswell if help is needed. We use jiralert in a large environment.

[bwplotka]

Amazing thanks! I think we have nice collection of contributors to attempt the move. Any of you would have time to prepare a PR to Alertmanager? I can even create feature branch for us. We can then together work towards PR with jiralert plugin in https://github.com/prometheus/alertmanager as well as documentation (: I will be there to consult and review (together with Alertmanager maintainers e.g. @simonpasquier)

I was a little confused by what's needed here. I thought there was a need for additional maintainers of this project so that there could be a greater capacity to review and approve PRs and create new releases. Is that not in consideration?

I would be open to helping with the migration, but right now the priority for my team is to get some of the fixes in PRs into a new release. It is especially painful when we keep hitting the 32KB limit and JIRAs cannot be updated.

Sorry for confusion, but as description suggests (#145 (comment)) this issue is about proposing it to Alertmanager and maintaining similar code (with the same functionality) there (:

Yup, feel free to propose changes to this repo for now. Whatever we do here will be useful in Alertmanager 👍🏽
