# State of the Thunix - September 2019
|
|
|
|
Hello Thunixers!
|
|
|
|
Another month, and more users on board!
|
|
|
|
Not too much has been going on as of late, due to time constraints for
|
|
the admin team here, as well as just a low-volume of requests. Likely
|
|
due to a few things, mainly, it's summer for most of our users, and
|
|
well, Thunix has most services folks need. So, if it ain't broke, don't
|
|
fix it
|
|
|
|
The biggest change has been the addition of our wiki, which has some
|
|
good documentation there already. If there's a document you want to see
|
|
there, add it with a PR, or ask someone to write it up for you. It's
|
|
not particularly difficult, it's just Markdown.
|
|
|
|
In the roadmap for the next few months will be a hardware upgrade, but
|
|
we really need your help for this. In order to migrate to new hardware,
|
|
and in the long term, reduce monthly costs, we will need to pay for two
|
|
servers for one month. So, I'm letting you know now, all donations
|
|
coming in now will be funneled into the "Hardware upgrade bucket". It's
|
|
not a very high cost, we're looking at something around 30€ total for
|
|
this, maybe a euro or two more. This is ~$32US. So, if you can donate,
|
|
this is the time to do it. To date, we've received a total of $12US in
|
|
donations, which has gone towards current server leasing costs (Total of
|
|
$9US after fees, and I spent 1USD on coffee lol). I would like to have
|
|
the hardware upgrade done by December, if possible.
|
|
|
|
All that being said: I want to make sure nobody is feeling pressured to
|
|
donate. If you can donate, great! If not, that's cool too! We still
|
|
welcome you to be a part of this community!
|
|
|
|
Also, if there is anything you'd like to see offered as a service, let
|
|
us know! If it's doable, we'll do it. At worst, we'll say "No", but
|
|
also let you know why we can't. Most of the time, we say "Yes" though
|
|
|
|
So, here's to another month, and many more!
