It's just that the CVS goes down a lot. Also I use adblock against all their ads, but I don't really like the overall design of the site without them anyways.

Sounds like a good idea, but probably not my pc. 1) My ISP blocks port 80, but maybe I could ask them if they can unblock it. 2) I turn it off overnight because I need total quitness to fall asleep. There is though an older server (it's eighter P1 or P2 :S) at my mom's work. I tried to set it up for a personal server last year and halfway succeeded. I could try to finish that this year. But it would be devel only as it's quite slow. :P > Don't take me wrong, I'm not talking about what "we should implement" as a > side project..
