Staging environment servers

Hi OpenWhisk PPMC,

This month's report [1] says

> ...It seems that Apache Infra. will not provide us servers to host a staging environment that would
> help us perform needed staging testing on Pull Requests...

Can someone clarify what's missing for this to happen?

Or point me to prior discussions or tickets if I missed them - I'm
willing to dig deeper and see what can be done as it's not an unusual
requirement.

Ok, thanks for clarifying.

I think the more specific we can be about asking for improvements the
better - if someone could briefly describe what can help OpenWhisk in
the future for similar cases (assuming more infrastructure is useful
at this) that would be great and hopefully benefit other projects.

I edited the point to say the following:

   4. The project is still working on establishing an open staging
environment to enable proper testing without depending on closed testing
infrastructure at involved companies. Unfortunately, even after finally
arranging a corporate donation to the ASF in June to support this need, it
took until late October for Apache Infra to finish provisioning the
machines.

That's not what the report says IMO, but I'm aware of that. And yes
that's disappointing.

maybe the comment for the report is just that it took 5 months from the
time Adobe made the financial donation to the ASF to the time that the
machines were actually made available to us.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-16668 for the gory details.

Is that outdated? Per [1] Adobe Inc. contributed a donation toward infrastructure and now Vincent and others are working on enabling Jenkins on those machines.
Do we need more machines?
