I don't have any strong motivation beyond my own learning process -- if
people can articulate good reasons for or against, that would help
clarify things.  I like both savannah and gitlab actually, but many in
the guile and guix community (which are the main sources of
contributions to guile-gnutls) seems to be migrating projects to
codeberg.  I think some contributors has expressed a desire to not be on
gitlab.

What may actually have been more on my mind was that I recall seeing
that the gitlab GnuTLS group lost its OSS status recently, reverting it
back to free services, and I thought that archiving the guile-gnutls
project may somehow help to regain the premium features, making the
group easier to review for licensing.  This is not substantiated though.

I don't think moving is hard or require a lot of effort -- as far as I
know, the only things that matters are to decide how to handle gitlab
issue tracker, merge requests, release page and continuous integration.
There are is one simple way to handle that: make the guile-gnutls
project on gitlab a read-only project, and setup a gitlab mirror
repository for CI/CD purposes.  But we can keep both codeberg and
gitlab, which will probably need to happen for some time anyway.

What do you think about moving?  For debian packaging I don't think it
matters: the watch file downloads things from ftp.gnu.org, which I
suppose will continue.  Or do you have other concerns?
