We never did really figure out the best way to integrate with GitHub development, and we are missing out because of it.

Many people had opened up pull requests on GitHub, and I didn't see them since we don't have full JIRA<->GitHub integration.

We do have the ability to link git commits to JIRA issues. What we are missing and need is the ability to have an issue be created whenever someone opens an issue or submits a pull request on GitHub. This will "close the loop" and allow true GitHub-style development for Funtoo.
