Today, we're excited to announce that GitLab Ultimate and Gold are now free for educational institutions and open source projects 💜 bit.ly/2Jr2czk

@gitlab hello @BdE_ENSIIE et @iut_senart <3

@gitlab "To reduce the administrative burden for GitLab, only educational institutions can apply on behalf of their students." How about something automated… like github.com/JetBrains/swot?

@gitlab There are a lot of open source projects that have paid contributors and can't benefit from your offer 😞

@gitlab

@gitlab Thank you Microsoft !... 😁

@gitlab @jayvdb @Microsoft go on, open the Github code. #showusyoumeanit

@gitlab @tceofficialpage kindly have a look at it. Gitlab is now officially supporting the educational institutions.

@gitlab Nice move for educational users. Any chance to get an answer for my sales request for a small company? Interested in Ultimate tier, no response since two weeks

@gitlab Great move!! especially for #OpenSource code bases

@gitlab @FPinaMartins Good timing!

@gitlab 👏

@gitlab What about non-profits? Can they get the same deal?

@gitlab You should also extend the offer to startups and/or small teams.

@gitlab please no. you need to have money coming in so y'all don't have to be acquired to stay afloat

@gitlab Are bootcamps and MOOCS like Udacity educational institutions?

@gitlab This is the best thing that has come out of #windows buying #GitHub

@gitlab @gitlab great timing, it’s time to migrate from github. 😂

@gitlab

@gitlab Good job

@gitlab We are the OpenSource Project PisiLinux and we need an Account on the Gitlab we have create one and doing something wrong there, to get a Account for Free how can we solving it

@gitlab Can you defined educational institution better? Is it only free for direct support of students or for support and IT departments that support the institute without direct student contact?

@gitlab how big is the backlog of applications? how long after applying can one expect to get back a response?

@gitlab Now *there's* some Open Source love!

@gitlab Thanks a lot. :)

@gitlab Clever move @gitlab, to emphasis the wave of migrations from #github to #gitlab

@gitlab I have applied for Gitlab educational pack on the behalf of Digiquest Academy. I've signed the quote about a week ago I haven't heard back from you guys since. Any update on the delivery of licenses ?

@gitlab They should consider including nonprofits that develop free software and technologies to call more companies. We hope to include our projects in this list.

@gitlab As a software developer from Iran with some casual open source activities, I cannot care less. You have just banned Iranian IP addresses.

@gitlab This is how you win github ladies and gents

@gitlab Please release version called VIsta plz

@gitlab How about hackerspaces? @HSGhent @hsbxl

@gitlab Will you sell GitLab to MS for $80B in the future? :)

@gitlab @jamiestavert

@gitlab @gitlab I tried to get it for my Institute, but it seems like it was still WIP. Any estimation regarding the educational license availability? TIA.

@gitlab Awesome; how do I apply?

@gitlab Brilliant move.
