Hello, Following up on the Debian Bullseye migration reminder, below is the current list of Cloud VPS projects that still have instances running on Bullseye:
account-creation-assistance bub2 capacity-exchange cvn deployment-prep devtools discourse dumps etytree extdist fastcci foundationmemory iiab imagebulk incubator integration isa maps matrix mwcli ocrtoy onfire reading-web-staging signwriting spi-tools statanalyser swift text-to-speech teyora tools utrs webperf wikidocumentaries wikifunctions wildcat wmcs-uptime If you recognize any of these projects, please help us reach the project maintainers or anyone else who may be able to help with the migration. In particular, if you know that a project is no longer actively maintained, any additional context would also be helpful. As a reminder, Debian Bullseye reaches the end of its Long Term Support (LTS) on August 31, 2026. If you maintain one of these projects and don't expect to complete the migration by the deadline, please reach out to us and file a Phabricator task tagged *Cloud-VPS (Debian Bullseye Deprecation)* so that we know the project's status and can coordinate with you. Please find the Migration guide here[0]. Current Bullseye deprecation report[1]. Thank you to everyone who has already migrated or helped other project maintainers with their migrations.
