I think the arguments for using JIRA elsewhere in this thread are more
compelling than the administrative overhead argument, but it sounds like
we all agree PJIRA is the right thing. 

On the subject of the separate projects, it's like a reflection of the
discussion we had about repository layout.  One the one hand, new
projects = more clutter, but on the other, we don't really have a
compelling "parent" concept that really encompasses both (not to mention
any future code we put out).  I suppose that since we chose two separate
repositories we should choose two separate JIRA projects, but it seems
to me that the clutter argument is stronger here since all projects show
up on that main JIRA dashboard.  Ugh, it looks alphabetical, too, so we
can't even push the more active projects to the top.  I imagine that's
why MISC has so many misclassifications in it -- it's just #1!

There is anonymous ticket creation....  O.o
