We got the 3 VMs Woot !! it only took 6 months The INFRA ticket [1] that I opened back in June I was able to close today. I ran a quick test from a Jenkins job to check the 3 VMs, I added the information in our Wiki page [2]
On behave of the Apache OpenWhisk (Incubating) community I want to thank Adobe Inc. for the donation of $1,000 (one thousand) US dollars to the ASF to allow us get these VMs dedicated to the project and be able to run Playground CICD tests.
