Same for the second machine.
Might be interesting to ask other people to give an extra hand? Because it seems that the OSM Foundation currently has a big surplus of $/E/L thanks to the last SOTM, that must be sufficient to buy a new machine for 0.6 and intermediately for a machine that can serve a consistent planet. I think our big leaders can justify that cost for their core business. Otherwise accepting the sponsorship that was offered over hardware and hosting abroad...

Nah ;) Wouldn't that be stupid, you never know what happens... their might be a big fight over 0.6 again and it is postponed till forever. I don't want to miss that party ;) Stefan _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
