Tom has proposed that OpenAFS submit a hardware grant request to Sun. It is believed that we can obtain up to $100,000 in 1U X86 boxes that we could use for a test infrastructure. Sun may be tempted to provide this equipment if OpenAFS was to state a desire to target OpenSolaris as a preferred operating system for OpenAFS deployments.
Please let us know if you believe this is a good or bad idea. Jeffrey Altman
