Hi :) +1 Ok, i am not a voting member but the options here seem to be 1. accept the donation and get an asset that might be useful (probably will be enormously useful) 2. hand back the dosh
So i am not really clear why it's even up for discussion or voting on but i guess it's good policy jic it leads to further unexpected expenses or other problems (which seems very unlikely).

One of our sponsoring companies is offering for-free hosting, such that this is a one-off spending. I hereby request the board to approve the purchase of a suitable box, for up to $3000.
