I think you're referring to manifesto.kde.org. There's nothing in there about
Reviewboard, or a requirement that project have to use infrastructure hosted
at kde.org, so I don't see that as a blocker.
Of course it would be prudent to give KDE's sysadmin's access at some point,
but it's not required per se.
