Seems to me the first step is to see if maintaining it and deploying it
is actually what we want - which it is not at all clear it is anymore.

Upstream gitlab devel is pretty negative on public browseability of the
trees. They won't even accept patches to do it. Also - if you read
their tickets there seems to be some other issue with that.

Finally, I am concerned that gitlab looking similar to github is a
liability. Due to the visual similarity many folks will be expecting
some kind of feature parity and it is safe to say that gitlab is very,
very far from that and they don't even seem interested in pursuing it.

That's concerning.
