We did it! We have received $3,743 in sponsorships and pledges towards the #VirtFS9p phase goal of $3500! Thank you everyone who helped reach this milestone!

[BSD Fund @bsdfund]

Day 20: We're at $2580 in sponsorships for the #bhyve #VirtFS9p work!

Every contribution has been matched to reach that number!

This puts us less than $1000 from the goal of $3500. You in?

[BSD Fund @bsdfund]

$775 in sponsorships to date!

Each is matched, making for $1,550!

The resync with HEAD is done and the first new code is landing!

[BSD Fund @bsdfund]

Commits are landing and we're on on @BSDNow!

Fantastic first week fundraising for #bhyveVirtFS/9p.

Commits should be landing soon and I'm working on bookkeeping and housekeeping.

Thank you everyone who has participated to date!

[BSD Fund @bsdfund]

Just hit $1,250 in less than a week!

Huge thanks!

More succinctly...

Hypervisor-boot your OpenZFS boot environments.

[BSD Fund @bsdfund]

Busy raising money for #bhyveVirtFS/9p...

But what does that word salad even mean?

For starters, picture booting a Jail in #bhyve

Hit $1150 y'all. Great work!

[BSD Fund @bsdfund]

The first BSD Fund Grant was in November of 2007 for OpenCON, the @OpenBSD conference in Venice, Italy!

Twelve years ago!

[BSD Fund @bsdfund]

Hit $900.

Surely #GivingTuesday will put us past $1000!

Your sponsorship will be DOUBLED by an unnamed company!

Hopefully I can talk them into revealing who they are.
