OSUOSL

The OSUOSL is the Oregon State University Open Source Lab.

Contact:
  • They can be contacted on #osuosl on the Freenode IRC network
  • They also have a 'support' mail address at osuosl.org

Virtual machine in FSF's infrastructure

  • The virtual machine is hosted in a server that is in their office or in a datacenter.
  • Several FSF network administrator also have access to the virtual machine
Contact:
  • The 'sysadmin' mail address at gnu.org
  • The FSF system administrators can also be contacted on #fsfsys on the Freenode IRC network for more urgent matters

Virtual machine specifications

The virtual machine runs on top of Xen and has:
  • About 3G of RAM
  • 1 virtual core
  • a 10G rootfs partition
  • a 100G storage partition for Replicant git repositories
  • One IPv4 and one IPv6
Software:
  • Trisquel 8.0
  • The virtual machine may be using FAI and cfengine but it would need more investigation on that.
  • The distribution seem to have the latest security updates applies. How it does it needs to be investigated by looking at cron jobs (it might use FAI for that).

Virtual machine backup policies

GDPR

  • For GDPR related inquiries, you can write to the PrivateContact mail address.

TODO:

  • Ask the OSUOSL about backup policies.
  • Document public spaces like Freenode IRC channel.
  • Do our own backup policies and do some backups ourselves.
  • Contact the people that have some control of the resources above and ask for permission to mention them here
  • Fill the gaps (mentioned with '?') in this page
  • Look what happens when an account is deleted
  • Fix the related issues in the tracker
