The OSU open source lab is one of those lynchpins for many Projects in FOSS.

Even small projects like @librecast depend on those servers. To be clear we don't host our project infrastructure with them.

But when we do a Librecast release it gets tested on Debian infrastructure to package it for #Debian and #Guix. Which OSUOSL is a part of.

So if you can spare some cash for this lab, please do so.

Our ecosystem depends on this.

With the latest funding predicament at #osuosl, I can't help but wonder how much money the public Oregon State University "invests" annually in college sports programs and infrastructure.

Their financial report curiously doesn't get into that much detail, but I bet it's significantly more than $0.25m.

@osuosl has been around for 22 years. They kindly host our gitlab for 6 months now, and provide important services for more than 150 other free and open source software communities such as @alpinelinux, @chimera , @debian, @fdroidorg, @gentoo, @gnome, @LineageOS, #ReplicantOS, @torproject. Now their future is in jeopardy 😢

We usually don't ask this, but please boost for reach, this is important infrastructure for so many FLOSS projects! :boostRequest:
