GitLab plans to delete dormant projects in free accounts (Register)

The Register reports
that GitLab is planning to start deleting repositories belonging to free
accounts if they have been inactive for at least a year.

GitLab is aware of the potential for angry opposition to the plan,
and will therefore give users weeks or months of warning before
deleting their work. A single comment, commit, or new issue posted
to a project during a 12-month period will be sufficient to keep
the project alive.
