Suggestion from rvarakan@redhat.com is to implement a way to see Che upstream epic issues in JIRA to improve visibility & help w/ planning.

Implementation idea from Nick:

• we need a python or groovy script that can scrape content from GH and turn that into CHE JIRAs
• needs to make sure it's not recreating issues that already exist; ideally it would support updating issues if the upstream ones change (eg., if closed)
• we could take https://github.com/redhat-developer/codeready-workspaces-jiralint/blob/master/bzira.py#L44 and update it to support upstream GH issues instead of Bugzilla

Snippet that will fetch GH issues (does not yet filter for kind/epic or status (must be open)):

GHTOKEN=YOUR_TOKEN_HERE
curl -sSq -H "Authorization: token ${GHTOKEN}" "https://api.github.com/repos/eclipse/che/issues?state=open&since=2019-07-12T15:00:00+01:00" | jq ".[] | .html_url,.title,.labels[].name,.milestone.title" | while read LINE; do if [[ $LINE == *"/issues/"* ]]; then echo ""; echo $LINE; else echo "  "$LINE; fi; done
