It would easier to move discussion to bpo if there were a clickable

that there is a workflow issue to add this, but last I knew, it was bogged down in where to put the link, or something.
The idea is being tracked at https://github.com/python/bedevere/issues/3 and it isn't bogged down so much as the people typically writing these bots/integrations having the time to implement the idea. I should also mention I'm hoping to have the link be accompanied with a short blurb reminding people to keep discussions on GH to just code reviewing and everything else going to
bpo.
I saw that and like the idea.
Moving on ... The next issue I have run into is that people can submit, review, or otherwise comment on the PR without being nosy on the issue. They will thus miss any further bpo discussion. One could not submit or comment on a bpo patch without becoming nosy on the issue (and the same might have been true for Rietveld reviews). Is there any possibility of making people nosy on bpo automatically if nosy on a PR?
Possible, yes. Trick with this is getting the change made. People need to realize that basically Maciej and Ezio have done all of the bugs.python.org code changes as of late (although a lot of the initial work was done by Anish Shah as a GSoC project). So you basically need to either convince one of those two to make this work or it's time to start learning the Roundup code base :)
(And just so I can claim I stated this publicly at some point; our Roundup installation I think runs on Python 2.6 and Roundup itself has not been ported to Python 3, so I don't know what we want to do if Roundup doesn't make the switch by 2020.)
