The host that runs these two services is down. I'm working on getting them back up. There's a reasonable chance I'll end up having to restore both db's from last night's backups, meaning a loss of the last 18 hours of bugzilla changes other than the messages sent to the bugs

While I agree that some of these points are true, what's not true is that the use of bugzilla and it's separateness from github is the cause. Bugzilla has a similar set of features for categorization and future release management as github. Having bugs tracked via github's issue tracker won't
