Today (Monday June 5th, 2023) at 15:00 UTC (8am US/Pacific) we ran the
account import operation that was announced a few days ago.  The operation
completed successfully.

You may have received an email from GitLab telling you that SSH keys were
added to your account.  These are SSH keys that are associated with your
Wikitech account that have been copied into GitLab.

There have been reports of users having difficulty setting up two factor
authentication (2FA) on their accounts.  The problem and workaround is
described in an existing GitLab issue:
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/344527.
