Unless your claim is that Fedora absolutely needs a sprint/kanban based organizational tool which would surprise me. I personally do not think Fedora should tie itself to Red Hat's Jira. For community oriented development Jira is simply not a great tool IMO, because it is built with a "traditional" organization in mind, not for community use. Keeping it simple is actually an existential requirement for Fedora where we have so many drive-by volunteers. Complex on-boarding becomes quickly an impenetrable barrier to participation. This is another reason I think common forges issue systems, while limited are a better fit for community issue reporting than either Bugzilla or Jira, because they are simple and immediately available. You can easily write automation to pull in/mirror issues into your own Jira projects if that's what you use for work and feel the need for, IMO. And just to be clear I am both a *heavy* Jira and Bugzilla user (including writing automation for both and other stuff via bots) for work, so I think I can say I know what I am talking about.
