Thanks for the offer, but the issue is not HW or resource related, but
people related. We need people who can write code, contribute to the
project around documentation, and help drive it forward.

We'd like to explore what mechanisms there could be for funding resource, but the most important thing right now is for all those operators who need these functions to make themselves known so there is a metric.

The decision is currently that the code will remain for another 6 months, after which time if no dev resource has emerged, then they will be deprecated.

I also know this list doesn't necessarily reach all of them either, so I will try and reach out by other means as well, but it would be very useful to try and get a clearer picture of how many people are using VPNaaS and FWaaS. If you are, could you please respond to this thread ?
