That's not bad, even good, IMHO.

I think I could learn git but, regarding bugzilla, I think we have built a
pretty solid infrastructure on Launchpad. It would be rather sad to migrate
everything to bugzilla (which is far behind LP as LP is evolving
constantly).

Indeed, that's a tricky question.

Being an official GNOME module would allow us, IMHO, to make collaboration
with other projects easier (like hamster).

But the price of abandonning launchpad seems rather high currently.
