Exclusive: Google-backed software developer GitLab explores sale

Wth is that headline?

GitLab is a software developer?

GitLab, which has a market value of about $8 billion, is working with investment bankers on a sale process that has attracted interest from peers, including cloud monitoring firm Datadog, opens new tab, the sources said.

I'm surprised. They've always had visions, and paid plans, and pushed a specific vision of their product.

Yeah, I thought the article was fine, though. Writer is more tech focused, editor seems more business focused, and the editor is usually responsible for the headline.
