My experience leads me to be pretty adamant on not relying on cloud services we have to pay for eve if someone sponsors and pays for it. We lose control and reality is that these helping hands come and go. OSUOSL is a university and they have been supporting OSS projects for a veeeeeery long time. We need to get our server into better shape though. Probably simpler shape. -- ------------- Codito, ergo sum - "I code, therefore I am" -------------- Carsten Haitzler - ras...@rasterman.com _______________________________________________ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
