It has recently come to light that [GitHub has recently made a deliberate 
decision](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ljH74APGOTVl_dxs-H_f5M4YuvMUBfdq/view)
 to renew a US$260M contract with the U.S. Immigration & Customs Enforcement 
(ICE) agency.

Since GNOME maintains a mirror on GitHub, that means we as a project are using, 
promoting and encouraging others to use the services of a company that has 
deliberately chosen to profit from the physical and mental abuse of people. I 
believe this is against the spirit of the GNOME project and as such, the mirror 
should be taken down (and a press release issued about it, although that's out 
of scope here, I'll take that up with the board).

Following on from #86, it seems there are two reasons why we maintain the 
mirror:

 1. To capture contributions from a wider audience
 2. For developer convenience, in particular global repo search

As per the previous issue, I'll take this to the d-d-l list for discussion, 
however to get some data for (1), @av (or others on the sysadmin team) do you 
know how many GitLab PRs have actually been migrated over here from GitHub 
since the automation for #86 was put in place? It is possible to produce a list 
of them?
