   @erlend Now Gitlab will be in position to dictate standards, and this is probably a bad thing.
   On the other hand, Gitea/Forgejo failed to implement federation despite working on it for years. Maybe Gitlab working on it will force them to reconsider their priorities and we'll finally see something usable.

     Several years in the making, GitLab is now very actively implementing #ActivityPub! 🙌

     https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/11247

     The end-goal is to support AP for merge requests (aka pull requests), meaning git.alice.dev can send a merge request to gitlab.com/Bob/project.git

     First bite-sized todo on the implementation path there is ‘subscribe to project releases’.

     Smart move by #GitLab; through ActivityPub they’re getting a distributed version of GitHub’s social layer.
