@hadess just to understand your issue, is this because fdo has a similar policy? Or are you saying that for some reason you are not able to create repositories in your personal space at GNOME gitlab and therefore need to use fdo personal space?
It's because fd.o has a similar policy, yes. There's no global namespace on the fd.o gitlab, but new namespaces aren't allowed. We end up having to put critical pieces of software in our own namespaces, which just makes it that much harder to maintain collectively as we used to every single piece of GNOME software.
