Google Supports the OSUOSL
Last week at OSCON was pretty special for everyone here at the OSU Open Source Lab. We were recognized by both SourceForge and Google in various talks which mentioned how important the OSUOSL is in supporting open source projects and communities. We provide hosting for projects that are typically larger and more demanding than what SourceForge, Google Code, and others tend to cater to. It's nice to be recognized for what we are doing, and I feel that we compliment services like SourceForge and Google Code very well.
Google didn't stop it's support at just mentioning the lab. Last week they also announced a gift of $300,000 to the OSUOSL which supports our growth and continued open source hosting and development services.
