Around me, many people told me that they were awaiting for the PEP 581
to be accepted,. They are now *very kind* that Python issues are
moving to GitHub.

Honestly, I don't understand why people are excited by bug tracker,
for me it's not the most exciting part of development :-) But it seems
like many people were unhappy with Roundup.

At least, I can say that I'm not a big fan of it's UI (maybe too
complex, too many fields) compared to GitHub. I can also understand
that it's annoying for contributor to have to create 2 separated
accounts (bugs.python.org and GitHub) and link them *carefully*
(mistakes are common, you can see that when a contributor waits for
the "CLA signed" label). Sometimes, they are some glitches with
bugs.python.org <=> GitHub integration: some notifications take longer
30 sec or simply never happen.

I understand that GitHub is better to *report* bugs (and maybe to
comment an issue), but maybe worse for bug triage, and that we want to
make sure that it's easier to contribute to Python for "regular
contributors".

I also know that GitHub isn't perfect and that it will take time to
build a new efficient workflow on top of GitHub.

That would be great! The migration of the code took something like 2
years and it was a little bit painful for everybody at the beginning.
Having someone paid for that would make the migration shorter and
maybe also smoother.
