This repo is used to manage the migration from bugs.python.org to GitHub.
- PEP 581 -- Using GitHub Issues for CPython: outlines the rationale for the migration and
- PEP 588 -- GitHub Issues Migration Plan: outlines the initial migration plan
- PEP 595 -- Improving bugs.python.org: includes issues with PEP 581/588, migration considerations, and a list of advantages that Roundup has over GitHub Issues
PEP 581 has been accepted, PEP 588 is still a draft (thus subject to changes), and PEP 595 has been withdrawn (but still contains valuable information).

In addition to bugs.python.org, we are also hosting two other instances:
- Jython is already using GitHub issues
- Still has a legacy instance of Roundup at https://bugs.jython.org/ (bjo)
- Thread on the Jython ML that suggests to switch to GitHub issues but keep bugs.jython.org around
- They are also using bjo for the CLA
- They would be fine with a mostly read-only bjo
- The tracker for Roundup is at https://issues.roundup-tracker.org/
- They are not planning to migrate
- They depend on us for hosting, unless they find another place
