I took a closer look at GitLab and I'm pretty convinced we should switch
to it for issue tracking, code hosting, and continuous integration after
the 2.1 release. It has come a long way in the last few years and seems
to be better than GitHub at this point. I have compiled a list of
GitLab's features that I think would be useful for Mixxx:
https://mixxx.org/wiki/doku.php/launchpad_migration#gitlab
Personally I think the way it handles comments, with threaded discussion
on issues and merge requests that can be marked as resolved, and the
ease of moving discussion from merge requests to issues, seems like a
big advantage over GitHub. I think this would make reviewing large
branches smoother.

Regarding disadvantages of GitHub
*Doesn't explicitly support rich states other than just open/closed*
If for progress tracking - milestones are great for this.
*Not possible to link related issues*
Maybe not in the same way, but you can links commits to issues in a
really nice way
*Not possible to specify different kinds of relationships
(parent/child, predecessor/successor, duplicates, etc.)*
Is this even needed? Seems cool to have an issue "tree" but it may
also be just additional complication.
*
Someone needs to commit to managing migration*
This would probably be pretty annoying

It does some things better than GitHub Issues. I have created a wiki
page to enumerate the problems people have with it as well as
pros and
cons for possible replacements. Please feel free to add any
other points
you think should be considered so we can make an informed decision.
