[Bug-wget] ANN: Wget2 development shifting to GitLab

[Darshit Shah]

Hi,

As many of you are aware, we've been working on Wget2 (aka Wget 2.x) for 
some time now. We have also been using GitHub in general for 
collaborating our efforts on Wget2. However, today I'd like to announce 
that we will instead be moving all our efforts on Wget2 to a new home on 
GitLab.

GitLab is not only more "free" than GitHub is, but also provides us with 
a few more features. In particular it gives us access to highly 
customizable CI options. This allows us to have more control over the 
environment in which out CI runs as compared to Travis.

Tim has just finished setting up the GNU Wget group[1] on GitLab. We 
will organize all development for Wget2 under this group. This means 
that we expect all new bug reports and pull requests to be made on 
GitLab from now on. We understand that this may be annoying for many 
users, but the convenience of having more control over such an important 
aspect of the development process will win over in the long term. We've 
also finished migrating all the existing issues and PRs from GitHub to 
our GitLab repositories

Hope to see everyone on GitLab soon!
