There are a couple of redundant points in the list. It lacks links
into anything (what's a Phabricator, where's the Bugzilla, etc.), so
for non-project contributors it is not all too helpful.

I would drop all policy and promises about some magical sync into
Bugzilla. What's the point? If things get no attention in Github,
they'll likely get no attention in Bugzilla. It also makes updating
the pull request hard to impossible, or will the pull-request to
Bugzilla bridge update the diffs in Bugzilla whenever something new is
pushed?
