change from gitlab to gogs
When we have chosen to use gitlab gogs ( https://gogs.io/ ) wasn't yet enough complete nor mature, but now things are changing and finally gogs seems to be better than gitlab from many point of view.
As soon we will move gitlab on another host, i suggest to evaluate a change and adopt gogs instead, the only reason to stay on gitlab is that actually there is no a migration tool from gitlab to gogs, but anyway it should be relatively easy to implement thanks to the great rest API of gogs, and it can be a great contribution by devuan to gogs and the community at large to write it as Devuan team.

Looks like they have an issue with their crypto certificates:
An error occurred during a connection to gogs.io. Invalid OCSP signing certificate in OCSP response. Error code: SEC_ERROR_OCSP_INVALID_SIGNING_CERTEdited by Alessandro Selli -
it doesn't seems to me, they are using a valid letsencrypt certificate emitted october 14 and valid until 12 january 2017 as what i can see,

As a work-around I set in about:config the security.ssl.enable_ocsp_stapling item to FALSE .
Maybe it's an OCSP server's issue? I just set the correct time in my PC, but the problem still manifests itself. -
Don't really know, anyway, it doesn't matter for us, it's eventually a gogs webmaster/sysadmin issue :)

It might be a problem (even though a slight one) if we're going to use it. I mean, I'm running Devuan right now, it's not nice having these kind of problems accessing the distribution's official git server with the browser that comes with the distribution itself.
Better let people know of the workaround. Which is what I am presently doing! :-) -
No, it cannot be an issue at all. Gogs isn't a service like github, it's a self hosted thing like gitlab: if we will use it, it will be installed on our own server, and the eventual certificate issues on the gogs website doesn't affect our install in any way.

I'm interesting in the reasons for Gogs over GitLab. If anyone has input, it would be appreciated.
