[Aaron Wells <1430567@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Here's the replacement strategy we've decided on.

1. The "official" Mahara source code repository, will be the gitlab
instance of the New Zealand Open Source Society:
https://git.nzoss.org.nz/groups/mahara

2. Accordingly, we'll set up reviews.mahara.org to replicate to
git.nzoss.org.nz, and we will also set up our automated tools to use
that URL in the places where they currently use gitorious (for instance
in the automated commit messages that get sent to Launchpad).

3. We will continue to also replicate the Mahara source code to
Github.com, and maybe to Gitlab.com as well, as a sort of community
outreach.

Cheers,
Aaron

Title:
  Migrate away from Gitorious before its May 2015 shutdown

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  GitLab has aquired Gitorious and will shut the site down at the end of
  May 2015: https://about.gitlab.com/2015/03/03/gitlab-acquires-
  gitorious/

  "Starting today, Gitorious.org users can import their existing
  projects into GitLab.com by clicking the “Import projects from
  Gitorious.org” link when creating a new project. Gitorious.org will
  stay online until the end of May 2015 to give people time to migrate
  their repositories. Existing users of Gitorious on-premises can
  contact sales@xxxxxxxxxx for more information."

  Mahara's "official" main code repository is still on Gitorious, as are
  many of our utility repositories (the manual, deployment scripts,
  etc). We also have scripts that reference the gitorious address, and
  project listings that tell people to access our source code at
  gitorious. Apparently all of this will need to change before the end
  of May.
