2. Where are the supporting donations for a new/bigger mantis server disc ?
Clearly I should have mentioned "attachments with moderation", and only
when really needed. See my reply to Bo.
Currently, I basically pay 100 EUR/month out of my own pocket for hosting
the main FPC server (which is also the mantis server) in a reliable data center.
Wow, that is seriously expensive - does the Free Pascal project accept
donations towards this? I'm assuming that includes an actual server
(hardware) with full control to it? If not, I better up my hosting
prices. I just charged a client £50 hosting fee for a whole year. :-/
It all depends on what service(s) you require.
I know I can get much cheaper than that (kimsufi at OVH for example),
but then I have less bandwidth, no backups, less diskspace, RAM, CPU etc.
As for donations: A foundation has been legally established,
I should really do some pushing to make it active.
Where is my time machine ? :/
I didn't mean to complain, I just wanted to point out that sometimes simple
wishes have unexpected consequences that need to be taken into account.
Michael.
