Dear Sir, Dear Madame, we don't know each other and I'm not part of the Debian Project or GitLab. I am only a Debian end user. I guess if the parties reached an agreement, it was all written in a document. In order to avoid unpleasant and useless discussions, it is recommended to share the document. Unless the agreement is confidential or it has not been written. I hope I have helped you.
