      Description

      Hello,

      I am a part of an organization from the SpeedupEurope accelerator program
      and have been using FI Lab cloud instance for our applications. I read the
      complete mail about the new migrations and rules but could not understand
      where the "default" organizations are allocated.

      I haven't received any such information from SpeedupEurope to create FILab
      account which provides me full access and not basic/temporary access!

      I rrently using Volos region and have some instances running. Please let me
      know whom i should address to get my organization registered and get the
      complete access.

      My team name is Lumingo.
