That was almost a year ago, and the discussion is thin on actual
details.  Support for email-based workflow is a good start, and is one
of the main requirements, but what about the GitLab/Github-like
features? if they are missing or incomplete, we will be trading
debbugs for something that is basically the same beast in a different
wrapping.  And what about the other requirements we collected and
documented in the GitLab issue about this?

So, like Lars, I think it would help if someone could post an
evaluation of SourceHut vs what we'd like to see, using the GitLab
issue as the baseline.
