The key bits:
> we believe that we should stop migrating all repositories unconditionally, and instead keep our two systems: Gerrit and GitLab. Gerrit should remain for the use-case of deeply connected repositories. GitLab should remain for tools, analytics and machine learning, and services.
> GitLab’s missing features are necessary for the productivity of developers, deployment safety, and operational reliability.
> There’s a demand for code hosting outside of Gerrit. Wikimedia Foundation-hosted GitLab has been a boon for these users—tool creators, engineers focused on data and analytics, and folks building services.
