On: GitLab acquires Gitorious

I think the only way to prove we're serious about open source is in our actions, licenses or statements don't help.

And yes, the huge community around GitLab will ensure a fork if we turn evil and start crippling the open source version.

Glad you like our comparison page with GitHub :)

This is the big key to open source. The proof is right there. The source is out there, so you can't turn that source evil, people can just take it and run with it around you if you try.
