A quick evaluation from my view:

Waffle.io provides only one board, but it imports all issues to the
board automatically. This might be messy now, but we can definitely
work with it (Inbox/Bugs/Requests/Backlog/In
Progress/Review/Release/Resolved).
I'm a little concerned about bug load, but we'll see how it works.

As for Github Projects, you can create multiple boards to work with
it. For example, you can create a board for every sprint. But for a
continuously evolving distribution like ours, this may not be a good
idea because it does not provide the option to automatically import
all issues to a board. This can limit us, especially when triaging
and/or maintaining tasks. (Also, I don't trust people to not "forget"
about the project management tool... again.)

Waffle.io seems like the safer option right now. We can re-evaluate
Github projects again later. (Like when Waffle integrated with it:
https://bot.waffle.io/)
I'd recommend that you try Github projects out yourself to figure out
if you like it better or not, and report back.
