Oh my...
Sorry for I started a small Open Source consulting & training business
that has yet to provide me enough money to make it possible to shift place
and live on with my girlfriend in Paris.
Hehe, not that it has any link to the community's need for a brand new
server & bandwith... but all the 4 computers (7 next months) I recently
built with Arch on 'em for an assocation will run Folding @ Home with
Arch's team (45032) >:->
