Hi,

I really to pull to the trigger of moving to git for good.

There is currently a mirror on Github in the AbiWord organisation:
    https://github.com/AbiWord/abiword

Right now I see three options:

1. just use Github for the source code, pull-requests, etc. Mostly this 
will require people to have a Github account, even though contribution 
could be accepted differently, like via email.

2. request a repository on GNOME own Gitlab (not gitlab.com) and use 
that. This would require contributor to either have a GNOME account, or 
use the available sign-in methods: Github, Google, Gitlab.

3. Use Gitlab.com.

In both case, the bug tracker isn't yet concerned by the migration.



My opinion: while I initially went for 1., I'm more inclined to use 2. 
because it is a good fit for the project, and not subject to Github 
owner (currently Microsoft, but this is irrelevant).
