Re domain certs - we should eventually probably switch to lets encrypt...
Also, will openvpn still be needed once build infra is transitioned to new foss AWS account?
FWIW, AWS has pretty affordable, automatable certs.
Regarding VPN, we are trying to get a Palo VM license so that we have better VPN and security around the AWS VPC.

We have AWS below $500, and maybe even below $400.
StackStorm includes a lot of components that makes it great and complete project. We also take the project quality seriously and happy to see how our community benefit from that and our users appreciate StackStorm's team hard work and dedication. This is maintained by just a few folks during their free time. There is much more than that and project relies on a number of external paid services to function well.
As StackStorm TSC, we aim on relying less on the 3rd party systems for security reasons and reducing the project's bus factor (sponsored resources, someone's CC, etc), as well as reducing the project's costs, minimize the bureaucracy/expense tracking and overall maintenance.
Here is the list of 3rd party paid services StackStorm is ~still~ using:
$300/mo
~~$100-300/mo
~apt
/yum
repositories with stackstormdeb
andrpm
packages we release. See PackageCloud Repositories. The bill varies depending on usage. Avg:200GB

storage used. Now based on FOSS partnership with PackageCloud. Announcement.$84/yr

extended for additional cloud recordings and storage.~ Switched to free meet.jit.si$5/mo

However needs like maintenance, infrastructure, expenses, development, bug fixes, security research, timely security patches, meetups, developer conferences, marketing to spread out the word and any other initiatives that would make StackStorm successful via new Community Bridge platform which is powered by the Linux Foundation:
https://funding.communitybridge.org/projects/stackstorm
The platform provides enough transparency and trust you need to support the StackStorm as a project and we appreciate any help from our community is it new code or funding contributions.
