Isn’t this decided already as I have read Wikitech-l Digest, Vol 204, Issue 7? No glue what this means for us and our infrastructure. Surely we would have a lot of work to follow this change or get another solution running. (Haven’t we a discussion about it 4 years ago?) And only a few active people for our project.
I remember the change from svn to gerrit was very hard and I was nearby giving up. And we lost other people like Binaris. The main problem for me was git/gerrit until I found a proper way to get it running (and wrote a manual for it). Thanks to Merlijn who gave me the crucial hint there.
For the new place I fear the main problems would be the CI setup and I think we would need support for it.
Best xqt

I think that is a great idea. If Xqt could do that, it would be awesome.

Of interest to us too. Someone in some WMF backroom has decided that we're switching from Gerrit to Gitlab. I'm no big fan of Gerrit, but this seems to be a very strange process. Comments on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Wikimedia_Release_Engineering_Team/GitLa...
As an update, it seems like we're going backwards (a good thing) and going to have some consultation process/working group.
At [1] I've suggested that someone from the Pywikibot community be included given how long it took us to do the SVN -> Git migration and how we haven't really had our needs met using Wikimedia CI (someone who's more active should correct me if I'm wrong/out of date on that).
