I would not bet on Kallithea. I hope it changes, but it seemed not
very active. Responsive (the team), but last time I tried working
on it was 6 months ago.

Pagure is a Fedora/Red-Hat project. Seems promising, although a bit
early. It seems functional enough for Fedora, and so far it's the
only one I would use.

There's a ton more we looked at. Building Gitlab from source is
supposedly harder than pagure, as pagure just depends on python
modules. I should pick up this branch again. If you don't mind the
wait, I could arrange this after the majority of the current task
is done.

Of course anyone could pull from my remote and work on pagure ;)
