gitlab.fd.o financial situation and impact on services

[Drew DeVault]

I rigged up SourceHut CI for use with gitlab.fd.o several months ago, as
part of investigation to see if wlroots and sway could be moved there.
It's still set up - anyone with a sr.ht account can go to dispatch.sr.ht
and create a task which rigs up GitLab commits to builds.sr.ht jobs. I
filed a bug with GitLab at the time to address a blocker for merge
request builds:

https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/issues/16491

They seem to be planning it for a near-future GitLab release.

Would be happy to host any fd.o projects who need builds on this
service. It's not 1:1 GitLab compatible, so some kind of porting effort
would be required, but various Linux distros and BSDs are supported.
Ping me if you want to discuss it for your project.
