FWIW, as a Christmas gift to you guys, I wrote a script that exports
Bugzilla issues over to GitHub [1] (as well as a RESTful API wrapper for
Bugzilla, hahah). To test it, I applied it to the Web MIDI API issues,
which were added to my GH repo called webmidi-issues [2], you can check it
out to see whether you think the export quality is satisfactory.
