Infrastructure#
GNOME hosts a range of services on its servers. These services provide the essential infrastructure that is required for GNOME development to take place, and are made available to contributors to use as part of their work on the project.
GNOME infrastructure is maintained by the GNOME Infrastructure Team and is supported by the GNOME Foundation. Volunteers and assistance are welcome.

GNOME Infrastructure is also responsible for other operations, including the GNOME websites, GNOME store, and GNOME accounts.
Some GNOME services are not hosted by GNOME itself. The main example of this is the GNOME Matrix domain, located at gnome.element.io.
Issues and support#
Planned downtime and maintenance work are announced on Discourse. status.gnome.org can also be used to check on the status of GNOME infrastructure.
