Re: [BuildStream] Cleaning up BuildStream organization on GitLab

[Laurence Urhegyi <laurence urhegyi codethink co uk>]

Hi everyone,

I've now tidied up the BuildStream repos so that the group level landing 
page is less cluttered:

https://gitlab.com/BuildStream

I filtered based on when things were last updated and archived the ones 
which clearly have no current activity.

This can be very easily undone so please, if there are any issues, let 
me know and we can address.

If you need to view a project that is archived, you can only do so via 
the url. The projects that I have archived are:

https://gitlab.com/BuildStream/gnome-test-data
https://gitlab.com/BuildStream/defs2bst
https://gitlab.com/BuildStream/jhbuild2bst
https://gitlab.com/BuildStream/gnome-modulesets-base
https://gitlab.com/BuildStream/debootstrap-ostree
https://gitlab.com/BuildStream/debsrc2bst
https://gitlab.com/BuildStream/buildstream-sysroots
https://gitlab.com/BuildStream/cargo-fetcher
https://gitlab.com/BuildStream/glade-demo
https://gitlab.com/BuildStream/buildstream-examples
https://gitlab.com/BuildStream/buildstream-integration

Thanks,
Laurence
