As not everybody contributor reads descriptions on GitHub, the GNOME project has a bot which imports Pull Requests from GitHub (to which GNOME code repos are mirrored read-only, from their canonical GNOME GitLab repositories) as tickets.
Code is at https://gitlab.gnome.org/Infrastructure/openshift-images/github-pull-requests-mirror
Probably makes more sense to investigate creating Merge Requests instead, as we currently don't use GitLab for tickets afaik.
An example of such bot activity can be seen at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/devdocsgjs/-/issues/44
Dropping this idea (which could end up declined).
