Since Daniel Berrangé posted a similar patch 3 days ago, I assume the gitlab license renewal is coming up quickly. In principal, I'm fine with this and will apply a patch shortly. In practice, we've always had to get a human involved at Gitlab to get our license renewed as we're clearly within the required terms, it's just that we've also got some further reading people should do. -- Tom
