It's funny, VTK moved to gitlab to improve engagement with the VTK community.
I really don't care which is picked. I picked github for the new VTK Wiki Examples because I thought it would be better for the community. I argued against vtk moving to gitlab but lost... BTW, the new VTK example site is here: https://lorensen.github.io/VTKExamples/site/ The interface uses mkdocs and Google's material look and feel. It performs well on desktops and mobile platforms.
