Time to consolidate static project pages into GitLab?

[Marco Antoniotti]

I am not that happy about github (or sf.net or whatever).

I don’t like the github “one-size-fits-all” basic setup (sf.net is better in that respect).

My preference would be to keep c-l.net as is; however, I am not doing much work about it :)
