I do not think you must use our puppet to run our tools. However, as 
Doug pointed out, we've moved to using puppet apply which is similar to 
chef solo, so it's maybe not too bad to re-use.

There is a github patch series that has not landed yet - and will not 
land until zuul v3. However, we do intend to land it once zuul v3 is up 
and going. You should look at:

https://review.openstack.org/#/q/status:open+project:openstack-infra/zuul+branch:master+topic:github-integration

Stash is the other thing that's not github and gerrit that I think it 
makes sense to implement a Source for.

Actually, zuul doens't really know much about launchpad, storyboard or 
redmine. That integration is done at the gerrit level.

Let us know how it goes!
