Out of the blue, without any more context and content, I am not sure to
be happy with this news.

To me, such a partnership is something quite stronger than sponsorship
and I'd be a bit ill-at-ease with it being done without the whole Debian
Members being consulted.

Last but not least, what kind of data would be shared regarding how we
use gitlab in Debian?
