For clarity and for the context of this thread => From GitLab: We did decide to moderate this post for review, as there have already been credible personal and physical threats against GitLab employees in this issue thread. GitLab cannot tolerate posts that threaten our employees (or anyone) personally, or posts that we believe may further inflame threats that have already been made. While this particular post did not contain a personal threat to anyone, we were concerned it would further inflame this situation. We understand that those who follow the issue already received the comment.

> Are there more details on why they specifically have chosen to move?
From the conversations with the KDE team (they might chime in with more context), the main goals were:
- More accessible infrastructure for contributors
- Code review integration with git
- Streamlined infrastructure and tooling
- Good relationship and open communication channel with upstream (GitLab in this case)

> Maybe there were some discussions in some public mailing lists?
I believe there were some other threads as well, but for a start, here is one of the discussions on the kde-devel mailing list: https://marc.info/?t=155091510600001&r=1&w=2

Note that it's more like the concept of a 'team' or 'project' rather than a single owner. Anyone endorsed by the team who creates the app (where a team can be a single person) can upload new versions.

There is a Feedback session at the end of the spec. You can leave your input and questions there, or you can alternatively continue the discussion on the thread at the ubuntu-devel mailing list. Thanks!
