I know it's a favorite pastime on HN to bitch about Jira, but I actually commend Atlassian for "New Jira". IMO they had an incredibly difficult problem: how to simplify the app that had grown pretty monstrous over the years, but in a way where you don't piss off every company that has their own specific workflow so if you don't support their particular way of doing things, they crap all over your changes.
I'm very happy with the new jira that we've been using for the past ~18 months, and I think it strikes the right balance between simplicity and ease of setup while still supporting the features we need.
