I certainly agree that a horrible outcome would be if atlassian or Oracle buys it, but IBM? If IBM acquires and puts it under the red hat umbrella, they have a history of opening up products that were previously more closed. Considering what they did with ansible, for example, would be amazing for gitlab.

As a former CentOS user, I politely disagree with this.

I appreciate the politeness :-)

Good point, red hat is far from perfect. The way they handled cent was incredibly disappointing.
