without any doubt I will say that Review Board has the most
comprehensive, powerful and easy to use *review* interface. Gerrit has
the best merge interface (and a terrible review interface) and Github
is kind of mediocre on both points.

So yes, if we opt for Review Board, we're still going to be
doing
manual merges to the upstream repository. I don't necessarily think
that's a bad thing, since it requires a final manual step to make sure
that nothing obviously breaks (although this can be minimized with
continuous integration testing).
I have direct experience only with GitHub and hasn't been pleasant so
far. I trust your experience and I'd vote for Review Board. Only time
shows if it is good tool.
BTW, reading mediawiki's Gerrit_evaluation, I am quite surprised it does
not allow review of patch series. I usually have multiple patches in one
branch, I polish them and then I send whole patchset for review, does
Review Board support this?
