The pricing structure and limits make it untenable for a significant open source project like PostGIS, GDAL, or PROJ to operate effectively on Travis without paying a lot more money than previously. That's their choice to make, and open source projects always operated there with the understanding we were guests. Unfortunately they also tossed off projects that were paying with their price increase. PROJ and GDAL got a price quote that was ~3x for the same level of service it was previously paying. </div><div><br class=""></div><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><span style="color: rgb(191, 191, 191); font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-variant-ligatures: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; text-decoration-thickness: initial;" class="">We’re also partnering with leaders in the open source world like AWS, IBM and Arm </span></blockquote></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Leaders in the open source world are organizations that *make* and release open source software.
