Well there are several pending offers for decent bandwidth/rackspace but you need decent machines to put in these spaces. If there are decent machines that need to get placed (which I don't know to be the case), then it's a inter-Debian communication issue. If there are people who have decent machines they'd like to donate, I'm sure we can arrange a fast home. :) As I mentioned elsewhere, since Bdale created a hardware donation delegate, we've rarely turned away even the mid and low-end hardware! I can't speak for the way they were handled in the past but things have been going pretty smoothly recently. I'm working on the mid-end hardware to high-end harddisk conversion process. Almost there. :) -- Benj. Mako Hill | Debian Hardware Donations Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED] | "Project Quartermaster" http://people.debian.org/~mako/ | [EMAIL PROTECTED]
