@tad_lispy Exciting! Is moving out of the cloud in scope as well?
Thanks, but would you elaborate please? I'm not sure how to interpret your question. If by "moving out of the cloud" you mean migrating to on-premises or self hosted solutions, then sure, I don't see why not.
@tad_lispy Indeed I'm thinking of moving things from the cloud to (self) hosted solutions, or maybe just data migration in general, not just from US clouds, but anything hosted on US servers - if that distinction makes any sense...
It does make sense. If you are thinking about it as a commercial service, then of course we can offer help. Currently I'm in the process of assembling the core team (see https://lemm.ee/post/58578768 for details). Once we are together, we will have to do market research and see for what kind of services people are willing to pay us. But we will almost certainly have people competent for such work.
If on the other hand you are thinking about your personal services, then I expect that within the co-op there will be plenty of mutual support and learning opportunities for that. But it's important to remember that we are starting a business, so the first focus is to generate income.
