Ok, this was my first question, moving just the infrastructure for now
is fine with me.

Would we be able to migrate the bugs which are on freedesktop to gitlab?

For what it's worth, moving these back to freedesktop probably means

Overall, I would not mind moving to gitlab, as this gives us more
control over the various administrative tasks we want to perform (create
