Service Level Agreement. It's when you have a contract requiring a certain level of service, like minimum 99.999% uptime or (in my example) a maximum 30 second response time on support requests.

This is something you typically get from an enterprise vendor (although 30 seconds is exaggerated) in return for paying them a lot of money. It's not something you can expect for free from volunteers.

Whoa, that does sound expensive!
