I think sufficient cloud resources to run a jenkins CI environment or =
something which does the builds on commit triggers and runs regression =
tests are the easy part - we run dozens (if not hundreds) of virtual =
FreeBSD instances in multiple datacenters to facilitate our own testing =
and donating a VM to this effort would be trivial.

I=E2=80=99m more intrigued by the part of the sentence which says =E2=80=9C=
to keep FreeBSD-Ceph up and running=E2=80=9D since it implies that Ceph =
on FreeBSD is already working?  It was my understanding that we were =
more at the part of the story where =E2=80=9Csufficiently motivated and =
skilled filesystem porting engineers=E2=80=9D could not be found, and if =
that=E2=80=99s changed then that=E2=80=99s obviously a different ball =
game!

Thanks,
