Hi all, I was meaning to write on the next steps of switching to new tooling when I came across this: https://lwn.net/Articles/813254/rss https://www.fsf.org/blogs/sysadmin/coming-soon-a-new-site-for-fully-free-collaboration https://libreplanet.org/wiki/Fsf_2019_forge_evaluation
In particular the last page claims with respect to GitLab: "GNU ethical repo criteria: gitlab.com listed as C, but has been operating at an F and will be reclassified soon because it sometimes requires users to run nonfree Google ReCAPTCHA code they have been very slowly working on moving away from for almost 2 years now [...]" What do people think about this? Is that serious enough to stop considering GitLab? Note that Gerrit is not on the list (probably because it's not a complete forge software, ie no issues?), so I can't comment on how it compares with respect to freedom. Let me see if I can get more information on when they plan to bring the hosting platform online. Jonas
