It actually makes a lot of sense. One of the options we discussed
was to backronym it to be Jim's Job Builder and teach JJB to be able
to spit out shell suitable for TH or XML for Jenkins (assuming the
"JJB as a library so TH can read the configs directly" idea proves
less viable). I could see extending that to also teach it to
interact with Zuul's layout configuration, potentially.
