> New Issue from the Issue Board Finally. I missed this so much. Loving the work GitLab is putting in to their product. Now, if only I could rearrange backlog items.

I'm thinking we're going to do this as the next change to the issue boards, before anything else [0]. I'm aware everyone wants this and it makes total sense.

Another release we're very proud of. Much of the work this release we spent on improving our idea to production flow and demos [0], things that'll trickly in over the coming releases.

We're also focusing on some longer-term improvements in UX [1], and are happy to ship some nice iterations with issue boards and merge conflict resolution.

Lastly, we're slowly building up review apps, which allow you to see/play with/test your changes running in a live environment. A very powerful concept and one we hope we can bring to everyone.

As always, we're here for any questions.

Please fix the speed. Even your gifs are slow.

Yeah, the feature set might be good (better than GitHub, I don't know), but every time I try GitLab or use Bitbucket, they're just so sluggish compared to GitHub it puts me off. Edit: I just tried GitLab again, and it looks like they've made good progress in this area -- still seems significantly slower than GitHub, but it's no longer dog slow to just browse source code.

We run GitLab via the omnibus package in our data centre on a modest VM and it's no slouch (2 CPU, 8GB RAM with ~15-20 users and about 10 active projects). The hosted option isn't the fastest, though.
