I really hope teams using Trello start migrating as soon as Day 1. We will
do our best to have the code review features as soon as possible. A lot of
people is investing a lot of time to fix the current community divide
between Bugzilla-Gerrit and Trello-Mingle. Yes, Phabricator boards have
their problems, but they are improving, and they will improve more with
your usage and your feedback. In any case, these problems are small
compared with the community divide introduced by the use of Trello-Mingle.
