Yes, awesome, thanks for investigating.

But, honestly, I think thats only the half way.

Issues:
- All links to bugs are dead from now on. That is critical imo. Could 
you please come up with a mapping database that redirects on bugs.o.o to 
the according links on github issues?
- All comments are done by you. Not critical, but also not nice.
- It is still possible to file bugs on bugs.owncloud.org, no hint about 
new bugtracking.
- There was no communication yet to community members
   * that we do this move
   * what that means
   * how we continue from here

Features of the new bugtracker:
I don't even have permission to close a bug, so the following questions 
might become obsolete once I have the correct permissions, but:
- Can we assign bugs to developers?
- Can we set a NEEDINFO state?
- Can we have a "How to reproduce" field?
- Can we have more data like versions, categories and such?
- Is there a bug workflow which we will need such as "NEW -> ASSIGNED -> 
CLOSED -> VERIFIED -> RELEASED" or similar?

I guess that can be configured.

If I may be honest, I am very annoyed by this uncoordinated 
infrastructure change activity which does not pay off in my (and others) 
opinion.
It's not only that we better should care for our product instead of 
fiddling around with fancy web tools, this is really bad community care: 
People loose their links, their accounts, no clear hints where to go 
etc. And that is just because we're not able to fix a bug genie 
installation.

Moreover, we didn't have a discussion about this nor any planing. I for 
example spent a significant amount of time investigation WHY the 
buggenie performs that bad recently, lost time now.

For the github move in general: I was saying I don't care at all as long 
as it does not give me additional work. Now I have to migrate my 
branches on my own. Hmm :-(
