+The Core Infrastructure Initiative [announced][lf-announce] today that they will
+support two Debian Developers, Holger Levsen and Jérémy Bobbio, with $200,000
+to advance their Debian work in reproducible builds and to collaborate more
+closely with other distributions such as Fedora, Ubuntu, OpenWrt to benefit

+The [Core Infrastructure Initiative][cii-link] (CII) was established in 2014 to
+fortify the  security of key open source  projects. This initiative is funded by
+more than 20 companies and managed by The Linux Foundation.

+
+The [reproducible builds][rb] initiative aims to  enable anyone to  reproduce
+bit by bit identical binary packages from a given source, thus enabling anyone
+to independently verify that a binary matches the  source code from which it
+was said it was derived. For example, this allow the users of Debian to rebuild
+packages and obtain exactly identical packages to the ones provided by the
+Debian repositories.
