I'm still here, keeping infrastructure running, still have hardware,
still receive telemetry showing children using our Fedora 18 build
(!), and still answering technical questions.

But we don't have funding for this kind of work. We now buy-in
laptops.

It would be wonderful if keeping dcon happens, but I have to be
realistic; whoever does it will need to be very dedicated to acquire
second-hand hardware and work through the various other things that
stop the modern kernel from running on it. I'll cheer you on if
that's you, and may even help out by mail, but I've other funded work,
so my time is limited.

Good luck!
