Are we finally using the server now? ... the last time I asked, it was just 
idle and we talked about returning it?

I frankly have no idea whether we are using it and who has access
to it.

Thomas, who is your contact with the QEMU community?

Anyhow whether the community is using this resource or wasting it
is orthogonal to this patch purpose, which is to address Fosshost
request to be listed, and we can not deny we had access to their
resources for months.

Thanks,

Phil.

Microsoft is also sponsoring QEMU with free Azure credits, though we 
aren't using them yet...

For now I'm following Stefan recommendation from v1 [*]:

  "I would only include organizations that ask us to display
   sponsorship information to keep things simple."

I am not aware of Microsoft asking to be listed, should I add it in v3?

IMHO, whether we're currently using it or not is tangential.

The sponsor has granted / reserved resources for QEMU, which can have
a direct cost for them, and/or take away from what the can grant other
projects. As such we should be creditting them for giving us this grant,
even if we've not got around to using it.

If we do decide to give up any particular resources, it is a quick patch
to update this page again.

My only suggestion would be that we don't explicitly state /what/ we're
using the resource for, just that we've been granted it

IOW say something more like

    [Fosshost](https://fosshost.org/) has provided QEMU
    access to a dedicated physical compute host.

    [Microsoft](https://microsoft.com) has provided QEMU
    with credits for use on Azure Cloud.

etc

Regards,
Daniel

Thanks!

We have access to RISC-V boards for QEMU tests from the PLCT Lab
(https://github.com/plctlab)
