Do you think you could fashion a CONTRIBUTING.md file for the bugzilla repo?
https://github.com/blog/1184-contributing-guidelines outlines how it is used.

This seems like the appropriate minimalist implementation.

CONTRIBUTING.md

A contributing.md isn't really a developer guide, and just redirecting to another place is kind of bleh.

Go has a good CONTRIBUTING.md:

https://github.com/golang/go/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md

Some key things need to be hashed out (right now, dkl and I are accepting pull requests but we haven't formalized the process)

Well, it redirects to various other places :-)

Does that mean you are taking this bug, then, and will write the file after you've decided?
