+# Note about the name of this file: README_CI.gitlab-ci.yml
+#
+# Automatic builds of the Debian website via Gitlab CI were setup during
+# September-October 2018 (see <20180914134901.GC29596@grep.be>
+# and <20181011191247.GA2733@grep.be> (and the corresponding threads in
+# debian-www mailing list) for context.
+#
+# This file (when named .gitlab-ci.yml) builds the website both for English
+# and translations, and the result (the html files) can be browsed via
+# artifacts.
+#
+# On November 2018 Salsa (Gitlab) settings for webwml project were set to keep
+# artifacts 1 week (default was 4 weeks) in order to save space.
+# Unfortunately the builds use too much resources, affecting salsa's ability
+# to serve other users.
+#
+# So the settings were tweaked again to disable the use of shared runners,
+# and this file has been renamed from .gitlab-ci.yml to README_CI.gitlab-ci.yml
+#
+# If you would like to enable Salsa's (GitLab's) CI builds for some test,
+# please contact the Debian web team, or you can rename this file
+# to its original name in your fork, and the CI build will run (occasionally)
+# in your Salsa account.
