Infrastructure Overview

The Foundation Budget for 2021 has made a supposedly sensible prioritization for the budget points. When aiming for more budget the points already covered by sponsoring should be settled first.

Do not understand what you want to mean. But just to clarify with the current donations we will need to priorize the codereview server in front of the website contents improvements and the purchase of the new mac mini (which is already purchased so we can not change that).

Are you speaking here as a private person or with your foundation hat on? IANAL but I doubt seriously that one is allowed to change the usage of earmarked funds in this way.

Several incidents (e.g. floods in Liege) have shown that it is a quite vital requirement.

This is unrelated as the codereview server is not on Liege.

The location of any service used by the project should be part of an Infrastructure Overview.

It was intended to be used to get offers for the infrastructure maintenance for next year. We are quite late…

I know we are a little bit late, but we have not received any notice of anyone interested in taking care of the infrastructure. If Anyone is interested please send me a PM an we will find a solution for that.

I see that someone has changed yesterday Foundation Budget for 2021 at least to no more contain to get offers for the infrastructure maintenance for next year. Again I have strong doubts that this is an elegible and legally compliant way to deal with the subject. IMHO this change should be reverted ASAP.
