JIRA using JIRA.... is it too easy to claim this finally explains the total lack of end user experience in JIRA? I mean just look at all the comments here complaining about performance, search, dependencies or broken WYSInotWYG editors. The four primary features of such a tool. This has been the state of every jira installation i've ever used the past years.

I'm sure your internal burn down charts are straight and nice though.

But as top level says, this is not the tools fault alone, more the process it encourages.
