Only Gitlab CE is OSS, GitLab EE is "publicly viewable" but neither FOSS/OSS [1]. It's really a shame because I would pay good money to have GitLab EE under a FOSS license. [1] https://about.gitlab.com/license-faq/

Out of curiousity, would you consider GPL Affero sufficiently FOSS?

As long as we're talking about the GNU AGPL then absolutely! I would say that the original AGPL is sufficiently FOSS but it's GNU GPL incompatible which might be annoying. It's not necessarily a deal breaker though if it's handled well.

That first headline should really read "What ARE gitlab pages", rather than "What is gitlab pages". Surely?

Well, now if only I can change the max-age of some resources (images, css, js) it'll get better than github. Good job!

Can you elaborate and / or create an issue here [0]?

Can you change your username please. HN isn't Reddit.

Unfortunately, it's getting there...

I know your account is over two years old, but:

Dear lord these guys are putting in work. I'm not exactly a huge supporter of Github (the company not the product) so I'm very glad to see it. I look forward to their continued growth.

>Dear lord these guys are putting in work.

man I wish they would bring something new, cool and innovative to the space, instead being bent on doing feature-by-feature copy of github.

They have an amazing opportunity now to take advantage of github fatigue. But they are throwing it all away by trying to become an inferior clone of github.

Wow, that tweet is blatantly racist. I'm somewhat surprised that this wasn't made into a bigger deal. Or, if it was, that I somehow missed it.

This is the world's smallest violin, playing just for the white people. Save the outrage for people who are actually discriminated against.

So, whites cannot be discriminated against?

Sure, whites have messed up. Still do. But does that mean they can't be discriminated against?

I remember when github adopted the Code of Conduct, it was a clear sign for me that it was time to switch. All they need now is the equivalent of Twitter's "Safety Council" to complete the SJW combo.

They should have just had the Code of Conduct from day 1 and not waited until they had an incident to overreact to. I've worked for many places with Codes of Conduct and diversity programs and they are usually run pretty well and are not heavy-handed or staffed with exuberant amateurs. There are proven benefits and established best practices to get it done.

The problem isn't with codes of conduct in the abstract, but with the specific code of conduct that GitHub used. It explicitly permits racism, sexism, and cisphobia as long as they aren't against the wrong groups:

Racist attitudes? Interesting - not sure what you're talking about. Could you link a source?

Their new 'social impact team' isn't a fan of white people https://twitter.com/_danilo/status/690601512813367297 http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2016/02/08/report-anti-white-a...

Ironically, if white people were in charge, history suggests we'dve definitely done a better job of subtly excluding the "wrong" people without being explicit about it.

Yes. I lobbied several companies to terminate their enterpise contracts with github because of their racist attitudes. All switched within 2 weeks. Some to VS Team Services, some to Gitlab. My work projects went to MSFT, but I think I will transfer my side projects to gitlab from bitbucket, since they have pages now.

Sensitive people enjoy being outraged.

Don't confuse being sensitive with being wronged.

No matter one's ethnicity, one should be against discrimination.

Thought I'd leave it here given that I just googled the term: https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=SJW

How have you managed to escape it for this long? Seriously, what's your secret please for the love of God let me know

Not the person you replied to, but I personally avoided it for a long time by avoiding the comments on [political/news/gender]-focused forums and subreddits. It isn't exactly a mainstream term.
