Here are my 2 cents. IMHO, any developer that is currently contributing with Django can easily work with both Bitbucket or Github.
AFAIK, the purpose o this big change is to enable more people to contribute lowering the contribution barrier. With that in mind, I don't think the decision should simply rely on a "feature comparison matrix" between the options. The point is to enable people to communicate more effectively towards the code, and on that matter, I don't really see a competitor for Github.
