Future of OSU Open Source Lab in Jeopardy: a recent change in funding for the Oregon State University College of Engineering (CoE), which strongly supported the project, makes OSL's current funding model no longer sustainable. Currently the OSL provides infrastructure hosting for Debian and many other Free Software projects, and virtual machines for x86, aarch64 and ppc64le used for CI. If you are in position to make funds available, contact the address you can find in the call for help from the director of OSL https://osuosl.org/blog/osl-future/

cyon, GmbH, a renowned web hosting provider based in Basel, Switzerland using Debian, decided to generously sponsor the Debian project. Thank you very much, cyon! https://www.debian.org/users/com/cyon
