Move to Gitlab or Codeberg?

[jneen]

Github is becoming increasingly unstable as a platform for this sort of project. Given that Gitlab is our largest user, I think it would make a certain amount of sense to be on their platform, or on Codeberg. We would need to do a migration of the issue backlog as well.

cc @tancnle, maybe it would make sense to have a discussion with some Gitlab folks?

[tancnle]

@jneen I am happy to help with the migration to GitLab. I don't think we would have much problem to enrol to the OpenSource program https://about.gitlab.com/solutions/open-source/join/.

[tancnle]

@jneen Yep sure. I can do Wed 10am - 1pm AEST. Which timezone are you in?

[jneen]

I'm in Toronto - US East, and that works fine for me! If you wouldn't mind sending me an email: jneen @ jneen.ca

[jneen]

I'm going to be honest though this gives me pause. https://about.gitlab.com/blog/gitlab-act-2/

[tancnle]

@jneen Sorry I created the invite but forgot to hit send 🤦🏼 Are you ok to chat between 12 and 1pm today?

[jneen]

No worries, I also miscalculated the timezone! I'm here now if you're free.

We've decided to not make any moves quite yet, though we are still exploring options. I think I would like to wait and see what the result of this is: https://about.gitlab.com/blog/gitlab-act-2/

Codeberg import seems to consistently break on this repository as well, so unless that becomes more stable (or Forgejo federation lands) I think that's an option that's not quite ready yet.
