@rnienaber @kwanyangu @lmcandrew @mbursi @dawsmith @kkyrala @sabrams @mbruemmer - I've put together the first pass at the gitlab.com direction. I'm interested to get your input and any gaps that you see.
This is intended to be a broad strategy linked to the customer outcomes and themes that we want to drive and is not intended to drive specifics of work, which are better informed by the group level direction and roadmaps.
Please let me know what you think.
