It's Koumbit's 10th birthday this year (already!) and we're having a party to celebrate. Bring your favorite beverages, your friends, your significant others, and your party hats!
Come one, come all! Friday, September 26 (2014) starting at 7pm
Hello!
PHP 7.3 has reached the end of its life many years ago (december 2020). The last security updates have been done in december 2021.
We understand that switching from PHP 7.3 to a more recent version can require work, this is why we have given you the option of continuing to use it until now. But now we must stop maintaining this version, for security reasons.
We will close php 7.3 support on February 1st 2027. After this date, any website still using php 7.3 will be switched to php 8.4 (with the option of downgrading to php 8.1 if needed).
Koumbit is hiring a PHP developer with experience in WordPress and Drupal who are motivated to work in a non-hierarchical collective. This position requires 4+ years of experience and is ideal for developers who would like to work closely with clients while contributing to and supporting the work of the Koumbit collective as a whole.
Koumbit is a non-profit organisation based in Montreal that has been building websites and managing infrastructure for local and global clients since 2004.
We are:
After having tried with Bill C-2, the federal government pushes forward again with Bill C-22. We note these major changes:
Dear users, allies, comrades and colleagues,
Koumbit will be closed on May 1st, 2026 for International Workers Day, commonly known as May Day. The emergency service will still be operational. We will be back to our normal schedule on May 4th.
After the success of our plan for collectives, we are now offering a shared NextCloud hosting plan tailored for individuals.
For 150$/year, you get a NextCloud account with 15Gb disk space for your files, as well as a brand new personal email address @koumbox.org! Since these emails are a new service, you get a multitude of options for your name!
Koumbit will be closed from Wednesday, December 24th, 2025 through Friday, January 2nd, 2026 (inclusively), including the telephone support line. Happy Holidays to all!
As always, our "on-call" team will be there to respond to any emergencies. We will be back to our normal schedule on Monday, January 5th, 2026.
Koumbit now offers a turnkey shared Nextcloud hosting service starting at 50GB. At 408$CAD+tx/year, it is the perfect package for collectives and small organizations. It is also possible to get additionnal disk space if needed. Smaller packages for individuals will also be revealed soon.
NextCloud is a suite of online collaboration tools. It offers file storage and sharing (similar to Google Drive or Microsoft OneDrive), a platform for collaborative file editing, a shared calendar, and a host of other features.
This Saturday, October 25th, your local non-profit solidarity web host, Koumbit, organizes a garage sale. Don't worry, while Koumbit is closing its office, Koumbit itself will keep on! We're simply closing the large office we barely used these last few years.
Come see us this Saturday, at 1883 Atateken, between 10AM and 4PM to see what we have to offer! We have office desks, chairs, whiteboards, etc.
We hope to see you!
