Donate
The build farm of the Guix System Distribution runs on donated hardware and hosting. As the distribution grows (see the package list), so do the computing and storage needs.
We have started a fundraising campaign to strengthen our build farm, with support from the Free Software Foundation (FSF). Please consider helping out by making a donation on this FSF-hosted page:
We are also looking for donations of hardware and optionally hosting for the following kinds of machines (they should be usable with exclusively free software):
- x86_64 machines, with on the order of 1 TiB of storage and 4 GiB of RAM;
- armv7 machines (such as the Novena) to more quickly test and provide binaries for the armhf-linux port;
- mips64el machines to strengthen this port.
Please get in touch with us through the usual channels or using the guix-hardware@gnu.org private alias to discuss any opportunities.
Thanks to the donors!
The table below summarizes hardware and hosting donations that make the build farm for the Guix System Distribution a reality.
