Hi all, I have started work on some of the issues on the migration milestone I created on GitLab[1]. Of course you can follow what's going on on the milestone directly (or the board[2]) but I figured I'd post an update.
[1]: https://gitlab.com/sane-project/ops/milestones/1 [2]: https://gitlab.com/sane-project/ops/boards?milestone_title=Alioth%20%E2%86%92%20GitLab%20Migration For starters, both the sane-backends and sane-frontends repositories on Alioth are now *read-only* and will no longer receive any updates. The developers should push to the corresponding repositories at GitLab.com from now on. Pushes to the Alioth repositories will now fail with an error message telling you how to switch your local checkout. # The website project will follow once we have a site set up on the # GitLab infra-structure. In the mean time, all these changes have # been reflected in the site's pages. All SANE project members on Alioth have received invitations to join the project on GitLab.com and a bit shy of half have already accepted. The rest will get another nudge soon. Please note that only project members can push to GitLab.com. Release artifacts, i.e. source tarballs, have been attached to their corresponding release tags for both backends[3] and frontends[4]. Various checksums have been added as well as some release notes.

It doesn't look easy, but someone at GitLab.com (the Director of Strategic Partnerships) has contacted me with an offer to help. I'm not holding my breath but any help in this area is welcome. [5]: https://gitlab.com/sane-project/ops/issues/10 If there is anything you think that's missing from the milestone[1] or find fault with any of the attached release artifacts[3][4], feel free to submit a new issue[6]. You don't have to be a SANE Project member. Simply login to GitLab.com[7] and create a new issue[6].
