I wanted to try importing llvm bugs into a fresh github repo and here's my result so far (import is still running): https://github.com/kwk/test-llvm-bz-import-4 . I've written the scripts ( https://github.com/kwk/bz2gh) myself because I wanted to remain in control and don't make my life more complicated than it needs to be. The README.md describes in great length what's imported and how. For now I import the bugzillas just as placeholder issues. Then I lock those issues in github to avoid messing with them. Before I created labels based on <BZPRODUCT>/<BZCOMPONENT>. Those are assigned to each issue. It should give a good start to at least reserve all github #IDs so they map 1:1 to LLVM BZs.
