Bidding farewell to Google Code

Obviously GitHub is much larger, but some projects are moving to GitLab, such as GnuTLS https://twitter.com/GnuTLS/status/573155639683248128

Bitbucket is also mentioned even though they don't have a lot of public projects.

GitLab is open source, has a great interface, many features (protected branches, git-annex support) and we offer unlimited (private) repositories on GitLab.com

GnuTLS did not move, they were moved because Gitorious got acquired by gitlab.

We did not move anybody. People imported their repo's themselves. Another project that moved is F-droid https://gitlab.com/u/fdroid that was before the acquisition.

Gitorious has a header that informs people to migrate to Gitlab.

Yes, we certainly strongly suggest it to people. Just wanted to make sure everyone understands that the move is initiated by people themselves, we didn't move anyone.
