Hi Miro, Thanks for forwarding this announcement. Apparently the talk about "improving communication between RHBZ and the Fedora Project" has not born fruit yet. ;) Do we know if any of our tools and scripts that interact with RHBZ will get broken by this? I assume you have an eye on at least some of the releng scripts (FTI, FTBFS, etc.). But what about fedora-review? fedora-create-review? The tool that syncs assignees from dist-git to RHBZ?
