GitLab, moving non-GNOME projects currently hosted on git.gnome.org

[Sébastien Wilmet <swilmet gnome org>]

Hi,

I would like to move all the projects I maintain to gitlab.gnome.org.
Currently those projects are hosted on git.gnome.org, but not all of
them are officially part of GNOME.

When looking at:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/explore/groups
the best group that fits is "Incubator", but I'll probably not setup CI
directly. "Incubator" is also a strange name for a 9-years old stable
project.

I could put those projects on my personal namespace:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/swilmet/<project>
but I don't like that because in the future there can be other
maintainers, I don't want to link the project with me.

On git.gnome.org all the projects were located in a neutral location:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/<project>
There were no groups. It was just a flat list, the groups were defined
in the *.doap files.

Now on GitLab with the groups, each time that a project is moved from
one group to another, the URLs change, and everybody needs to adapt the
git remote in their local clone.

Isn't there a better solution? What do you recommend?

Thanks,
Sébastien
