<p>Hi Alessandro,</p>
<p>Thanks for your information.</p>
<p>I just want to hear other core devs' opinions if this would be useful for QGIS.ORG. QGIS.ORG infrastructure is already complex and mainly only Jürgen, Richard and partially Tim understand the infrastructure partially. If we start something new I would like to see a long-term commitment from someone to maintain it (lets say at least for the upcoming year from the start on).</p>
<p>Just my two cents from a financial point of view.</p>
<p>Andreas</p>
<p><br /></p>

<p>Hi,</p>
<p>Yes - if you can propose how much this would require, please let us know.</p>
<p>However, we would also need a plan how sustainable this piece of infrastructure would be. Who would look after it if things fail?</p>

<div> </div>
<div>Well, maintenance will be an issue whatever infrastructure we opt for.</div>

<p>How would this fit in with the rest of our infrastructure, etc, etc.</p>
<p>Also, is AWS the only option, or are there other alternatives?</p>

<div>There are for sure, but the Vagrant setup for the AWS build is already done and tested in production for plugins CI, I don't know if anybody is still maintaining it though, I'm not looking at it since I left Boundless. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>BTW, I'd recommend to check and use the Boundless nightlies while they are still available, they might need updates for 3D though, I'm pretty sure it's not using Qt 9.x but the stock Qt from trusty64</div>
