The Linux DRM Projects Are Plotting Their Transition To Gitlab
With many of the FreeDesktop.org projects having already transitioned from their CGit and hodgepodge of services over to Gitlab, the Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) trees appear to be up next.

Longer term, Gitlab should yield them more capabilities too around continuous integration and other modern development features.
