[chiglug] Okay to use the ChicagoLUG Rackspace account for temporary GuixOps work?

[Jim Campbell]

Hi Chris,

Best of luck with the project. In reading the lists.gnu.org mailing list
email, it sounds like Rackspace support may be of some assistance. They
have a #rackspace IRC channel which may be of some assistance, and they can
direct you to filing support tickets (if that's the right approach) and the
like.  They may also be able to tell you if you're missing any steps . . .
They built this stuff, right? They should be able to help you figure out
how to use it.  : )

Again - hope things work out!!

Jim
