Both are valid points. However, TDF infrastructure has:

 https://redmine.documentfoundation.org/projects/infrastructure

IMHO these are the options:
1/ Infra tracking issues on both Bugzilla and on Redmine.
   There is no way in which this can be a desireable scenario.
2/ Infra tracking issues only on Bugzilla. For someone working in dev or QA
   certainly desirable as we use Bugzilla. However, the infra team seems to
   prefer Redmine over Bugzilla and we wouldnt close Redmine as a lot more
   subprojects are using it.
3/ Infra tracking issues only on Redmine. Certainly not ideal, but IMHO the
   best and most realistic option given how this grew historically.

To make 3/ more bearable, we should likely close and move all infra and
ci-integration issues to Redmine. It might also possibly be helpful to have a
bot that:
 a/ Scans for new ci-integration and infra bugs
 b/ Creates Redmine tickets from them (e.g. via the email interface of Redmine)
 c/ links to the Redmine ticket on Bugzilla and closes the bug on Bugzilla as
    "RESOLVED/MOVED".

Anyone writing such scripting is welcome, I guess.
