-# Help fund the Reproducible Builds effort…
-
-**The Reproducible Builds effort needs your help to continue its work towards
-ensuring the security of computer systems of all shapes and sizes around the
-world.**
-
-Whilst anyone can inspect the source code of free and open source software for
-malicious flaws, most software is distributed pre-compiled to end users.
-
-The motivation behind the Reproducible Builds project is to permit verification
-that no flaws have been introduced during the compilation process—either
-maliciously or accidentally—by promising identical results are always generated
-from a given source, thus allowing multiple third-parties to come to a
-consensus on whether a system is compromised.
-
-Your continued support will be key in solving this problem, which affects
-systems of all sizes, from embedded microcontrollers to the largest government
-systems.
-
-## Future work
-
-The Reproducible Builds team has demonstrated that it is, in principle,
-possible to build a Linux distribution in a reproducible manner and have solved
-many of the issues in doing so.
-
-However, the next release of Debian ("buster") is currently not yet 100%
-reproducible and funding to support on-going maintenance of critical
-infrastructure will be absolutely essential to reach this goal.
-
-This not only includes the administration of over 50 build nodes across
-multiple architectures, it requires continuous and patient work with package
-maintainers and upstreams to merge reproducibility-related patches. It also
-includes extending the scope of [our testing
-framework](https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/) to even more projects, as
-well as improving the existing tests and reports.
-
-In addition, there are currently no tools that let a user know whether packages
-that they are installing are reproducible or not, required to "close the loop"
-and allow end-users to finally truly validate the software they are running on
-their machines.
-
-Furthermore, maintaining momentum — both in terms of public perception and in
-private — around the various related projects such as *diffoscope*, etc. will
-be key in ensuring a reproducible "buster" becomes a reality.
-
-## Past work
-
-* 94% of packages in [Debian](https://debian.org/) are reproducible
-  in our tests, and [Debian Policy](https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/)
-  now recommends that builds are reproducible. Support for our build metadata
-  format (`.buildinfo`) has been merged into the official toolchain.
-
-* Large amount of cross-distribution collaboration —
-  [Tails](https://tails.boum.org/) and [Coreboot](https://www.coreboot.org/)
-  now offer reproducible ISO images based heavily on our work, and
-  [NetBSD](https://www.netbsd.org/) offer a reproducible base system to
-  complement considerable progress from [F-Droid](https://f-droid.org/en/),
-  [openSUSE](https://www.opensuse.org/) and
-  [ArchLinux](https://www.archlinux.org/). In addition, we are also providing
-  continuous reproducible builds testing for eight Linux distributions.
-
-* Core patches written and submitted for GCC, R and Go, Rust introduced
-  "file maps" in support of reproducibility after our feedback.
-
-* A number of highly lauded presentations (LCA, Embedded Linux onference,
-  LibrePlanet, Scale15x, CCC, OSSE, LinuxCon China, Open Compliance Summit,
-  etc.) as well highly-productive meetups in "real life".
-
-* Countless features in [diffoscope](https://diffoscope.org/)
-  and other tools; 1000s of lines changed with extensive use outside of a
-  reproducibility context.
-
-* Mentoring in [Outreachy](https://www.outreachy.org/) and
-  [GSoC](https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/) to ease inclusion of new
-  contributors especially ones from under-represented groups in technology.
-
-* Almost 3 years of regular weekly newsletters as well as IRC-based
-  meetings. Friendly communications have ensured that newcomers from all
-  backgrounds feel involved and welcome.
-
-## Contact

-Please do not hesitate to get in touch (`info at reproducible-builds.org`) if you
-would like any more information. Thank you for your consideration and we thank
-you in advance for your support.
