Well technically you cannot stop people from using the github issue tracker
for reporting bugs and by default if you are a contributor to a repo you
will be alerted via email of new issues or replies to existing github
issues.

Both github and forgbuz issue tracker can happily coexist. There will be
also little need create same issues on both githyb and fogbuz because there
will be little benefit , both are quite efficient on what they do , I see
little reason not to allow both ways of reporting bugs.

Github has a bit the edge here because of how it handles pull requests
which it separates from issues and it allows you to start discussions on
top of the code to be merged etc. Again this is a technical detail, the
important thing is to report bugs and to fix them , how you do it is a
lesser concern.

Github has also other advantages that I am not so familiar , especially
with CI. Right now CI for Pharo is separate , this is also can be brought
to gitgub in some way without actually moving the CI and have Github as a
main hub for commits, issue reporting, CI discussions and free wiki and a
static website (maybe as a more permanent version of the wiki).

Github is actually extremely flexible. Gitlab is even more so , cause its
full open source and allow you to host it on your own servers and you do
not need to relearn what you learned with Github as it follows a very
similar interface. Gitlab allows to move repos from github and will copy
not just the code but also issues etc. So that is also a good solution for
some people who may way to have Pharo dev on their own server and more
control of it.

A rather new feature for Github is also projects, a way to visualise todo
lists, roadmaps, pull requests etc

https://help.github.com/articles/about-project-boards/

It also offers way to visualise other things like commits, issues etc

and last but not least it can host downloads of releases so there is a
convenient and obvious way to find the latest but also previous versions of
pharo with Github releases
