Almost Everything We Do Will Be Open

GitLab is transitioning to a more open development process by moving its internal issue tracking and discussions to public repositories on GitLab.com, enabling greater community involvement in the development of both its open and proprietary software versions. This shift aims to address previous issues such as duplicated bug reports, lack of transparency, and limited community insight into planned features, thereby fostering better features and faster bug fixes through increased feedback and contributions. While sensitive issues like security concerns will still be handled internally, the change will allow customers to view progress on their issues and feature requests, enhancing collaboration between GitLab's community and its customers. Over time, GitLab plans to integrate feature requests into this public system, gradually phasing out their current feedback platform, while ensuring that customer interactions remain confidential through internal linking.
