 Ahhh! Thank you anarcat, this makes a lot more sense.

 If some folks prefer GitLab that's great! But migrating us **away** from
 Trac is not a decision to be taken lightly, and requires community buy-in.

 I was around a decade ago for our migration to Trac, and what you're
 proposing is a big move that impacts us all. Especially if you want to
 propose shutting Trac down without redirects. As I see it there's three
 open questions...

 1. Do we want to migrate away from Trac at all?
 2. If so, what would we prefer to move to? GitHub? GitLab? Something else?
 3. What will happen with Trac's ticket and wiki data?

 This ticket is not the proper place develop consensus on such a large
 move. If you'd care to pursue this I'd suggest...

 1. Open the GitLab instance up. I tried to look at
 https://dip.torproject.org/ to see what my projects look like on it but
 I'm presented with a login page. As an open source developer this makes it
 DOA right from the starting gate. :)

 2. Begin a thread on tor-project@ to see how the community feels about
 this. I suspect if we move at all folks will prefer GitHub to GitLab, but
 I'm definitely curious to see what people think.
