Dear OARC community, Over the past year, our OARC system administration staff has worked out a plan to replace the data storage system that provides a service to our members to analyse DNS data, such as DITL data that has been collected over many years and which makes longitudinal studies possible. The massive amount of historical data needs good care and with the new data storage we can continue to provide the OARC community with a valuable service.
In recent months, OARC has already received donations from community members to finance the new data storage system. Thank you very much, these donations are very much appreciated and can be seen as an indication of the value that members give to the service that OARC provides to the community. And while OARC's financial position is sound, we would like to call on our members to look for opportunities within their organisations to make additional donations to bridge the current gap in our data storage budget. We are still looking for $7.5k to $15k USD for our total investment of $100k USD in the new data storage system. If you see opportunities to help us, please contact Keith <[email protected]> and/or one of the board members. We are happy to discuss this with you in more detail. Thank you! Benno for the OARC President and Board _______________________________________________ dns-operations mailing list [email protected] https://lists.dns-oarc.net/mailman/listinfo/dns-operations
