[Python-Dev] Appending a link back to bugs.python.org in GitHub PRs

[Ben Hoyt]

With the linking back and forth, I'm curious why there wasn't a switch to
use GitHub's issue tracker when we switched to GitHub. I'm sure there was
previous discussion about this and good reasons not to, but couldn't find
those quickly (PEP 512, Google search, etc) -- can someone point me in the
right direction? -Ben
