Red Hat’s Adam Jackson announced on the website that X.Org started its migration to GitLab.
I'd like us to start moving repos and bug tracking into gitlab. Hopefully everyone's aware that gitlab exists and why fdo projects are migrating to it. If not, the thread about Mesa's migration provides some useful background: https://lists.x.org/archives/mesa-dev/2018-May/195634.html This should be mostly mechanical, except for moving some of the older junk into the archive and deciding which drivers _not_ to move yet (I imagine intel has some of its processes hooked up to bz, for example).
Earlier this month, FreeDesktop.org announced that its next project repo will be gradually migrated to GitLab. For FreeDesktop.org, the reason for hosting code on GitLab is that some infrastructure aging has taken up some maintenance costs, and GitLab provides a well-integrated solution for bug reporting, CI and code hosting, etc. Volunteers manage the FreeDesktop.org project more easily. They can also use the more modern user interface provided by GitLab to complete the operation. It is easy to extend and better meet the needs of other projects.
FreeDesktop.org is an open source/open discussion software project developed for the X Window System desktop interoperability and sharing technology. The most famous X desktops are GNOME and KDE. Previously, GNOME has completely migrated to GitLab.
Adam Jackson said that the project migration is to routinely clean up some old code and decide which drives should move. Regarding the post-migration collaborative approach, Adam stated that he personally prefers to stop using the mailing list, and expects most X components to adopt this idea. In his opinion, because most X components lack active maintenance, it is rare. A patch can easily be overwhelmed by a dense list of mailing lists and make it difficult for the server to track patch approval status.
