That aside it was a planned outage, I'm thinking more about unplanned outages and giving small sites the ability to display OSM maps, putting OSM in front of as many eye balls as possible is one potential way to grow the user base and in turn the data. The more people that see errors the more likely they are to want to fix them :) > We also get slightly more OSM operated hardware outside UCL soon.

Bandwidth is dirt cheap in the US so it's very likely you may get several, as for hardware why not try some vendors like IBM to see if they'd donate some decent kit in return for their logo being displayed etc. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
