As terrible as it is for GitLab, it's doing some good here as well.

I'm using this as a great example of a reason to bump up some of the fixes to some of our backups and replication issues up the priority list. And it's much easier to sell to some of the "higher ups" when you can point at a concrete example of how badly a misstep here can hurt.

I'm floored with their honesty and openness, I can honestly say I wouldn't be able to put this out there like they have... But i'm really glad they are doing it, and I'm really happy at the outpouring of support they are getting for it from people like 2ndQuadrant.
