Bug tracker



Minecraft Bug Tracker is the official website location for players to report bugs for Minecraft. It is mostly community-organized and run.

History
Previously, the Issues page in Minecraft Wiki was used to maintain issue reports. Many people complained about the process is too complicated or too easy.

Due to the high demand of a proper bug tracker instead of using the wiki, Mojang contacted Atlassian. Atlassian became their choice because it is more flexible and customisable.

An email was sent to Atlassian to gain help on making a proper bug tracker. Atlassian immediately offered to help, providing a free JIRA license. A video was published to showcase their improved JIRA developer’s API for JIRA v5.0.

Announcement
On October 24, 2012, the bug tracker was officially released by Erik Broes and Atlassian using their issue tracker, JIRA.
