Ok, I stand corrected then. :)

Yes, on the face, and with good intentions nonetheless. :)

I agree 100% with that. Either way, Jeremy should not have been made to feel
the way he is feeling, and I would guess that applies to many people in this
thread. My point still stands that there was a failure at the leadership
level.
I concur with that. The way this was handled later in the process is a great example on
how to not do things and how the decision is being communicated is an utter mess.
I don't have a strong preference in respect to Gitlab or Pagure, however the memories
are still fresh of when we had to move from pkgdb to pagure because modularity needed it,
and now after such a long time that we have a feature parity, compared to our previous
workflows, we will have that changed again. But the negative feelings and memories of the
previous change do not go away that easily and proposing such a change could very well
bring up strong emotions. Adding to it the way this was handled afterwards, included being
at odds with the Fedora's project statements only adds fuel to the fire.
