Re: [Trisquel-users] Gitorious is dead - acquired by GitLab

[ericrfontaine]

"My understanding is that GitLab will gradually move Gitorious users over to  
their platform."

Incorrect.  The GitLab CEO has stated in HN  
(https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9139511) that "[Existing Gitorious  
users] will have to import their repo's into GitLab." and clarified that "We  
don't want to move people's code without them agreeing with that move to  
another organization."  I think this is partly because of the concern that  
some gitorious users may not want their code hosted on gitlab.com's  
proprietary enterprise edition.  The gitlab ceo even pointed out links to  
other fully opensource hosting services.
