Atlassian moves Jira beyond 'issues' to allow other labels
Briefly

"Language issues were preventing those teams from feeling at home in Jira," said Jira head of product, Dave Meyer. The term "issues" doesn't appeal in the same way to describe a type of work those teams are doing.
Meyer said this is among Atlassian customers' most-requested features: custom templates that encapsulate all of the issues/tasks/blockers involved in delivering a project.
A video seen by The Register shows this tool analyze a document titled "Investigate crashes from build 304" and create a plan to fix it, even proposing code changes and initiating a pull request - all without leaving Jira.
Jira has also been made more customizable, with personalized color schemes and backgrounds now possible - another nod to users beyond development teams, but also one that Atlassian thinks hardcore users will appreciate.
