Hi Andrew,

We are working on setting up a Gitlab instance (Community Edition) to
host some other projects at CERN. Perhaps KiCad could also fit there,
but let's reevaluate the possibilities once we have everything in place.
Switching source code hosting platforms is trivial only for git
repositories, but then you need to also migrate the bug tracker,
blueprints, mailing list, etc.

In any case, I would rather not deploy another instance exclusively
dedicated to KiCad. The main problem is that we would need an
administrator who could take care of the system.

Cheers,
Orson
