CyanogenMod asked for help - and raised money in 8 hours

Yesterday, the CyanogenMod team turned to the community for help . Usually collected donations are barely enough for current expenses. Recently, CyanogenMod no longer cope with the daily release of 50+ builds. The fact is that before they had access to a free computer cluster (apparently, at work or from one of the developers), and now there is no such access.

The daily release of fresh nightly-builds for each model of the device with the latest features is the most highlight of CyanogenMod. Now they officially support 56 devices and update them daily. The developers turned to the community with a request to help with money. You need to buy a couple of good Xeon-class servers with lots of memory and fast disks.

A few hours after the appeal was published, the head of the British hosting company Bytemark Hosting made a speech at the forum, who offered to donate one or two servers. And eight hours after publication, CyanogenMod representatives reported that they had collected the necessary amount . Servers will be ordered next week, and soon CyanogenMod will return to the usual schedule!
