I am absolutely sure that there are people who can/will do this very easily. Even me, as not the deepest technical person would be able to do this without any preparation. So i think this can be done by our contributors in Bangalore and around. Btw. i would not use Fedora for Servers. Nobody will upgrade Servers every 13 month - and the argument they(startup company) do not care about security, is maybe good for them, but it is not good for Fedora when a old Fedora Server is abused - for the press still a Fedora System is abused. The Company should use CentOS for their servers it's the same family. But! I do not think we should help a business without get something back. Here in Europe we call that Community Consulting where we enable companies to work with and on Fedora - and there is the Fedora EMEA e.V. as legal entity - non profit organisation - where you can spend donations for Fedora. We use this money for events, fad, fudcon, swag. We can save some RedHat Money and we report all that to the Fedora Board. I know that things are different in India and maybe the law does not allow moneyflow to a private contributor, but maybe it is possible that the startup Company helps as a Fedora Contributor, as example - provides proper accomodation for Fedora Contributors for Meet up's like foss.in or provides SWAG or Booth Material or simply code ;) cu Joerg -- Joerg (kital) Simon jsi...@fedoraproject.org http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/JoergSimon http://kitall.blogspot.com Key Fingerprint: 3691 0989 2DCA 58A2 8D1F 2CAC C823 558E 5B5B 5688
