I think GitLab is the better match in the current situation for the following reasons: 1) It provides a complete forge platform. This allows to replace all three tools that we currently use to host & browse the source code, keep track of bug reports, and review code. 2) gitlab.com is hosted and you only need a single account. If you want to it's possible to log in with Google or GitHub (and others), but you can also just have a plain account with username and password. I acknowledge that Gerrit might provide a better review experience for large graphs of commits. However I think that the integration into a single tool outweighs that advantage. Jonas
