What exactly was bought? The gitorious employees? Looks like the gitorious code is gonna get scrapped. Edit: I mean, what was the purpose of buying gitorious? The employees? Enticing the gitorious customers and users to use gitlab?

    Their business was no longer sustainable and they wanted to shut the company down without a bankruptcy.
