Too late to edit my post, but gitlab is planning to go public next year and had I know I wouldn't have posted the slight prodding I did. If this how they're gearing up we can calibrate our expectations of that company's future accordingly.
Of course the feedback is negative. You obviously knew it would be because you made that blog post in the first place. Three months from now you'll have made some cosmetic changes while still collecting basically all the data you wanted. Eventually you'll be ramping up to roll this into your enterprise offering. I'll do another round of source control tool research and hopefully be able to move gitlab to the NRND list in internal documentation.
That's how it will go, because that's how these things always play out. The world will keep spinning.
