@gnat Thanks for the link. It doesn't; had I read that first, I'd still have the same question about JIRA, since it's much more closely tied to software development processes than many other tools, at least the way I use it. So while the answer ended up being the same in the end, it wouldn't have answered my question, or would've left me with "does general 'tools' include JIRA?". Also it's from 5 years back and sometimes community policies change a bit. That's my two cents, anyways. That said, I don't really care that much about this meta question or its fate, heh.

Yeah, I stuck it on the Atlassian community forums just now.

Based on Thomas Owens' reply; I've deleted the question and will re-ask on a JIRA forum somewhere, since I don't think it belongs on SO, either.

Thanks! Then, I will ask it somewhere else; as I don't think it belongs on SO either, at least not according to the jira tag description there.

It is not only the name that invites the questions you don't want, but the steaming casual-discussion coffee mug as well.
