Glad to hear you're happy with your self-hosted instance.We're working on single user subscriptions (before either 8.5 or 8.6), our license key doesn't call home and our license will stay proprietary but already allows for modification and publishing patches.

Allowing your customers to publish their patches is super cool :-)

Thanks, I think the super cool thing is that they actually do it: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/merge_requests?assig...
I am currently very happy with my self-hosted GitLab instance for my personal projects. But I would love to have some of the EE features (both for my workflow and experience working with enterprise tools) and I'm willing to put my money where my mouth is. However open source is very important to me so my question is do you think it would ever be possible to purchase a personal use EE instance without license keys, calling home, and under an open source license?
