Hi, we might be able to extend the External Trackers extension in RH Bugzilla to be able to create as
well as sync bugs.

We've shared the code with upstream to see if they like our approach so far.

Fedora is our biggest user community, so we can certainly make some Fedora specific changes to RH
Bugzilla should it be required.
