Open Source Lab Rackathon

The Open Source Lab at Oregon State is having a fundraising drive to continue their existing work and take on a few new projects. OSL serves up hosting and download space for Apache, Debian, Drupal, Eclipse, GNOME, KDE, Mozilla, OpenOffice, PHP, PostreSQL, and many others.

OSL rack

A $20 places your name in 10-point font on a piece of paper attached to the server cage for a whole year! Each additional $20 donated increases your font size by 1 point size. OSL sysadmins will have to look at your name for a full year and you'll be helping a good cause. You can even watch sysadmins at work through the OSL webcam.
