Isn’t this decided already as I have read Wikitech-l Digest, Vol 204, Issue 7? 
No glue what this means for us and our infrastructure. Surely we would have a 
lot of work to follow this change or get another solution running. (Haven’t we 
a discussion about it 4 years ago?) And only a few active people for our 
project.

I remember the change from svn to gerrit was very hard  and I was nearby giving 
up. And we lost other people like Binaris. The main problem for me was 
git/gerrit until I found a proper way to get it running (and wrote a manual for 
it). Thanks to Merlijn who gave me the crucial hint there.

For the new place I fear the main problems would be the CI setup and I think we 
would need support for it.
