Thanks everyone for the details, and especially aviau for getting the
technical bits sorted out.

Let’s also consider the social aspect of this migration, though. I suggest
we send out an announcement regarding the migration timeline and expected
impact.

More specifically:
• Please outline how one can easily update their git working directories to
switch to the new remote address. Perhaps there is a git or sed oneliner we
could use?
• Let’s give people at least 7 days notice to activate their account on
GitLab, and to voice any feedback or concerns they might have regarding the
migration.
• It might be good to send a targeted reminder to people who are in the
pkg-go team on alioth, but not yet on GitLab.

I’d be happy to review any draft announcement you come up with.

Thanks!
