+description: "April 2023 funding report"
+---
+
+We’re coming to the end of another funded chunk of work, here’s what happened 🤟
+
+<!--more-->
+
+## What happened?
+
+At the start of 2023, we announced [our next major round of funding](https://coopcloud.tech/blog/new-year-status-update/), this time from a private donor. We would like to thank them, and the [individual contributors on our OpenCollective](https://opencollective.com/coop-cloud#section-contributors), once again, for financially supporting our work and enabling us to push the project forward 💗
+
+## Tooling updates
+
+There’s a new `abra` available and if you haven’t upgraded, [please go ahead](https://docs.coopcloud.tech/abra/upgrade/)! There’s a [migration guide](https://docs.coopcloud.tech/abra/upgrade/#06x-beta-07x-beta) available and the full changelog is [here](https://git.coopcloud.tech/coop-cloud/abra/releases/tag/0.7.0-beta). 
+
+The idea behind the `0.7.x` series of `abra` was to fix several critical bugs and also re-factor - and, in some cases, remove - some of the more unreliable parts of the tool. Some of the main improvements are:
+
+* `abra` has a more stable interaction model with SSH. We’ve seen a dramatic decrease in obscure SSH related errors and hope that will be a thing of the past 😌
+
+* We’ve got the beginnings of machine-readable output! Try running ([with `jq` installed](https://stedolan.github.io/jq/download/)) `abra app ls -m | jq '.[].apps[].appName`. This has enabled such wonders as [`abra.php`](https://social.coop/@coopcloud/110125297575197185)!
+
+* `abra` now continues to work during outages of `git.coopcloud.tech` - removing one dependency on a central point of failure, on the path to eventually [further decentralising the recipe catalogue infrastructure](https://git.coopcloud.tech/coop-cloud/organising/issues/139).
+
+Lastly, we’re also happy to share news of `kadabra`, a server-side companion tool which is available for general alpha-testing (here be dragons!) which has been developed by `@Moritz`, a member of [Local-IT](https://local-it.org). Thank you `@Moritz` and Local-IT!
+
+`kadabra` is about helping perform automatic upgrades of apps in your Co-op Cloud deployment. `abra` now attaches some extra metadata to the deployed app, and `kadabra` can read that and make a decision about whether or not to perform an automated upgrade. It’s all new, and we welcome brave alpha-testers to check it out! 
+
+## The Co-op Cloud Federation bootstrap meeting
+
+We’re delighted to announce that we have finally bootstrapped the federation 🎉 The process is far from over, but the wheels are now officially turning: we had 13 in attendance at the founding meeting, representing 7 collectives.
+
+One of the main goals of the session was to come to agreement on what decision-making protocol to use. Thankfully, this was a success, and we now have a way to collectively make decisions together using consent and consensus. This means that Autonomic has completed the process of decentering itself as a main decision maker of the project and from now, will submit decisions to a vote like any other member of the federation.
+
+We will be publishing all public federation minutes, decisions, plans, etc. [here](https://docs.coopcloud.tech/federation/).
+
+## Finances
+
+We have reached our goals for this current chunk of funded work and we still have funds remaining! This is money which was budgeted to support future administration and pay members for participating in the meetings (yet to be invoiced for). We will be transferring this money to the [Co-op Cloud Open Collective](https://opencollective.com/coop-cloud) once we finish up some remaining finance admin. In this way, we can also start to make collective finances more transparent.
+
+## What’s next?
+
+On the technical side of things, we will continue to identify critical bug fixes and improvements in `abra` and publish new versions. We hope to bring `kadabra` to a stable release soon and expand the collectives who are running the software.
+
+For the federation, there will be more discussions and meetings coming up soon. We aim to continue thinking through how to organise our internal processes, for example, membership guidelines, financial sustainability and prioritisation of development efforts.
+
+## Get Radical with us
+
+We'd love to see more folks [get involved](https://docs.coopcloud.tech/get-involved/) :tada:
+
+If you're thinking about setting up a technology co-op, you have a software stack sitting around waiting for you to pick up now; we have the technology! It's built by tech co-ops for tech co-ops. If you're curious but don't know where to start, [get in touch](https://docs.coopcloud.tech/intro/contact/) anyway!

+
+Happy new year all! Here's our status update and some good news 😽
+
+<!--more-->
+
+## New funding secured
+
+We're delighted to report that we have secured more funding! The proposal we wrote can be read here [in full](https://docz.autonomic.zone/share/359c2b0d-9a3d-477c-84cc-73448be05142). In short, we'll be focusing on 1) finalising the Co-op Cloud federation (see [our original blog post about it for more](/blog/federation-proposal/)) 2) fixing critical bugs in `abra`. The support has come via a donor who wishes to remain anonymous. We would like to thank them for getting in touch with us and for supporting our work and this community 💕
+
+## New community hackers & organisers, w e l c o m e 🌻
+
+We've seen a lot of activity in the Matrix channels in the last months. It's been great to have a steady stream of new people step into the project. We've received wonderfully constructive feedback! We're happy to welcome members of [Arso](https://arso.xyz) and [Agaric](https://agaric.coop) into the project and see them testing out Co-op Cloud.
+
+We're now a grand total of [8 `abra` hackers](https://git.coopcloud.tech/coop-cloud/abra/src/branch/main/AUTHORS.md)! It's reassuring to know that folks who want to dive in and hack on `abra` can do so without too much trouble. `abra` is now `0.6.0-beta`, see [the docs](https://docs.coopcloud.tech/abra/upgrade/) for how to upgrade.
+
+## FOSDEM 2023 talk confirmed
+
+`@decentral1se` will be at [FOSDEM 2023](https://fosdem.org/2023) doing [a talk](https://fosdem.org/2023/schedule/event/sovcloud_the_co_operative_cloud/) in the Sovereign Cloud devroom. Maybe see you there if you're around for some Co-op Cloud Beverages & Chats 🍺 Here's the abstract for the talk:
+
+> Co-op Cloud is a software stack that aims to make hosting libre software applications simple for small service providers such as tech co-ops who are looking to standardise around an open, transparent and scalable infrastructure. It uses the latest container technologies and configurations are shared into the commons for the benefit of all.
+>
+> The project launched public beta in May 2022 and has seen a lot of interest from hosters, hackers and end-users. We are currently in the process of forming our organisational model which help us make decisions collectively and work towards financial stability.
+>
+> In this presentation, I'll give a status update on the Co-op Cloud ecosystem and where we're going. The thinking and principles of the project closely overlap with the ideas of the Sovereign Cloud and the intersection of the needs of end-users and infrastructure providers.
