The date for the final conversion has been established as the weekend of
17/18 july. People that wish to report bugs after that will have to create a
gitlab account in order to do so. (Those with a github account can normally
also use that account to log in with gitlab, see the gitlab login page.)
I thought the plan was to move to GitHub? I never used GitLab before so can you
explain the reasoning here?
Michael v.C. send a mail on the topic before.
GitLab is open source. If the company fails, we can take the last
version, and self host again.
Also afaik, the "open source account" that gitlab offers is way better
than github. (also with respect to the issue tracker capabilities.)
Though, I do not have a comparison list.
There may have been other reasons. As I said M.v.C did sent an answer to
that earlier.
