Yes. Due to the lack of feedback regarding my ports/builds I don't feel
very motivated so far. ;-)

Does it mean, you are mirroring ibiblio.org by uploading new releases of
active projects to GitLab?

But isn't working on FreeDOS about working in a community, i.e., by

Still applies.

>>>    * It is open source.
>>>    * You “can” run your own instance on your own hardware.
>>>    * Projects can be grouped into Sub-projects without any fuss.
>>>    * Unlimited public and private repositories for free.
>>>    * Detailed and flexible user management for free.
>>>    * Easy export of projects or entire groups of projects.

I see.
