I agree on the migration... at least the repositories.
Is not clear how we want to proceed however.
Should the freedesktop guy do everything? Should we just clone, wait and
close (disable temporarily?) freedesktop?
Should we move everything at the same time of maybe first repositories
then bugs?
Is there a way to move bugzilla bugs to gitlab issues?
Are we talking about freedesktop gitlab instance of gitlab.com?
