Re: Debian and GitLab Open Source Partnership
Hello,
I'm wondering: what is the status of the gitlab partnership discussed
last year?
I saw that Debian is listed on Gitlab's partner page at [1], and reached
out to inquire about resources for the cloud team. Unfortunately, they
weren't able to find any details regarding the partnership.
So I'm just trying to track down:
1) whether or not anything happened here
2) if Gitlab's listing is a mistake
Thanks,
Ross
