Description

This is a proposal that within the contributing doc, under the Recommended Workflow (GitHub) steps, we can add a small additional note to newcomers that they will need to log in or sign up for a new account on the ASF Jira first before being able to create an issue. This was a source of confusion for me when I was new to contributing here so just wanted to raise this in case others may have similar experiences.
