Is this an indication that we finally have to settle on another bug tracker?
This has been discussed previously but I can't find any conclusions from those
past discussions, hence I'm asking again. I do not intend to dismiss the hard
work of those people working on StoryBoard in the slightest, but it does seem
like StoryBoard as a project has never really taken off outside OpenStack and is
having a hard time surviving, let alone growing, likely because of that along
with the widespread use of forge-style tools (GitHub, GitLab) and more
comprehensive project management tools (sigh, JIRA). I recall fungi (?) raising
the idea of enabling the more forge'y features, including the issue tracker, of
Gitea in the past, but there are also separate tools like (heaven forbid)
Bugzilla, Trac, Mantis, etc. that we could use. Heck, Launchpad is still around
and is still open source (though I recall there being other issues with that?).
We've already made a tough decision recently, with the sunsetting of ask.o.o,
and with the impending deprecation of Angular.js, perhaps this is as good a time
as any to do the same with StoryBoard?

/me goes back to logging in for the zillionth time while trying to triage OSC
bugs :)

Cheers,
Stephen
