The Sourceware (financial) year runs from/to May 15 which is when we joined the Software Freedom Conservancy as a member project. https://sfconservancy.org/news/2023/may/15/sourceware-joins-sfc/ Tomorrow is the second Friday of the month, so it is time for the Sourceware Open Office again. This time one hour earlier so it isn't yet weekend for those in Europe. Friday May 8, from 15:00 UTC to 16:00 UTC At #overseers on irc.libera.chat $ date -d "Fri May 8 15:00 UTC 2026" Last year was all about refreshing and expanding our hardware and servers, moving into bigger datacenters and run all our services in VMs instead of on bare metal servers. https://sourceware.org/sourceware-wiki/servers-and-services-2026/ We spend a good chunk of our budget on bigger/faster hardware. But also raised twice as much (individual) donations as the year before. This looks pretty good and puts us "ahead of schedule". We predicted we needed 3 years to raise enough money to refresh our hardware again. But seem to have done it in one. So for next year we can probably be a little more ambitious and also request some more corporate funding and approach some grant makers to accellerate some of the plans we discussed. There are a couple of plans that could go a lot faster if we could hire some consultant or a sysadmin that could execute them. See also our previous Sourceware Survey results and Budget priority discussions: https://inbox.sourceware.org/20260412192052.GA15385@gnu.wildebeest.org Sourceware relies on cooperation among a broad diversity of core toolchain and developer tool projects, hackers, organizations, ideas, and communication styles. The monthly Sourceware Open Office meetings are one way of coming together as a community and discuss our shared development infrastructure.
