Hi, I'm also proposing we keep our Launchpad interface. This lack of a convenient Questions interface on Gitlab seems a problem to me.
Frontpage such as [ https://launchpad.net/yade | https://launchpad.net/yade ] look also to me less "geek" than e.g. [ https://gitlab.com/axiom-micro/hardware | https://gitlab.com/axiom-micro/hardware ] (which should just compare to [ https://github.com/yade) | https://github.com/yade) ] As for the bugs, I like the possibility we currently have to link Launchpad bugs with Launchpad questions (which leans me towards keeping Launchpad bug management), even though this is a less major thing to me.

That's convincing. Mixing bugs and questions does not seem to be a good idea. A mixed option could be to move bugs to gitlab and keep Q&A on LP, hence separating them even more. Not sure there is any real advantage in doing that, though.

I looked into this. From what I can tell, GitLab only offers issue tracking, which is analgous to bug tracking on LP. Issue tracking was not meant to be a Q&A forum, however, some projects use issue tracking (aka bug tracking on LP) as a place for community support [1], despite the awkward interface. GitLab does provide a nice labeling system, so questions or "support requests" can be filtered as such. But it is likely that Yade users will become confused since it is not a traditional forum format, they will simply search through all bugs and questions at once, they will post without considering the labels, or worse, they will use the wrong labels. I'm scared of a disorganized mess. What do you guys think? Was it useful to keep bugs and community questions separate? If we decide it is preferable to combine bugs (issues) with community questions, then I vote for an effort to migrate the launchpad Q&A archives over to GitLab issues. I looked around and found some apathetic conclusions regarding Launchpad->GitLab bug migrations [2] . Ultimately, some tools exist but they will likely need to be retooled. This could be a significant project, tough to tell... Given all this information, I lean toward leaving the Q&A on launchpad. What is your opinion?

Dev's should have the rights to do that.

I don't see a real need to use direct push (point 1), one exception is when fixing simple bugs maybe. What you say is more (I guess) that some devs need enough rights to accept their own MR (point 2). Right?
