Hi Quim,
From a technical viewpoint Wikimedia Labs has the perfect
infrastructure and it would be pretty straightforward to move OpenGeoServer.org to Wikimedia Labs.
What is complicating things is that the last time I checked Wikimedia Labs has / had the policy only to host test & development server and any live service should use the Wikimedia Foundation production environment.
Which leaves already running Wikipedia related OSM & Web Map Service with no clear path forward until the new Wikimedia Foundation web mapping infrastructure has emerged.

Hi Quim,
Thanks for keeping me updated.
OpenGeoServer.org is currently running on a small rented 100 Euro/Month server and with funds from Wikimedia Germany running out it would be a pity to shut the service down, because no CPU cycles & disk storage can be found within the vast Wikimedia Foundation infrastructure.
What is stopping you from migrating the service to Wikimedia Labs - https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/ ?
Sorry if you have replied to this question before. In that case, just point to the URL. Thank you!
