[sane-devel] Alioth deprecation

[Gerhard Jäger]

Dear Laura,

Thank you for the information and thanks to Olaf we're already in the process of
moving to gitlab: https://gitlab.com/sane-project

Although not all issues we have with the movement are solved, the project is on
a good way.

Best regards,
   Gerhard
