Sebastian,

It appears that the github repository created by Carnë contains everything we 
need:

- the "master" branch should be a git version the current OF repo
- the "TUDA-0.1.3" branch should be wat you had on gitlab.

So I would say it is safe to wipe out the current TUDA repository and 
substitute it
with a clone of Carnë's github.

Do you agree?
