Gitea onboarding for developers

An end of an era is coming, soon!

That is to say, Blender's going to stop using the software we're using on developer.blender.org to develop our code, organize teams, etc.

All that, and done with open source, too!

If you are a developer (or just sufficiently geeky), this is a talk that aims to get you to have a peek at what the status is of our new source-code forge, what to expect, what's still in progress and also have an opportunity to ask questions, give comments and help make it a better yet.
