+      <p>GitLab is a web-based Git repository manager with many
+	features that is used by more than 100.000 organizations including
+	NASA and Alibaba.  It also is a very long-standing entry on the
+	"Wanted Ports" list of the &os; Wiki.</p>
+
+      <p>In the last quarter, there was steady progress in the
+	project itself and the porting.  The current release of GitLab 8.3
+	is now based on Rails 4.2, which obsoletes the need for around 50
+	new ports.  Now there are only 5 dependencies left to be
+	committed!</p>
+
+      <p>While the new version of GitLab 8.3 eases the porting,
+	there are big changes between the last working port of GitLab
+	7.14.  Nonetheless, it could be expected to see the next working
+	port in the first quarter of 2016</p>
