/dev/sda1       882G  5.4G  832G   1% /

absolutely, we have plenty of room now, the web is up and running as is the 
pdb, I'm just waiting on the fns switch, at which point I have also asked 
RangerRick to provide me with the current zone file so I can centralize fns as 
well and we can stop pestering RR for DNS updates though this ;)

I agree with akh, next would be to update the scripts and start a mirror for 
the info files using github as the master (hopefully setup the dists module in 
git for this to work).

Then I'd love to start working on a binddist again, I have tons of room so we 
might be able to setup a few of these 1950s I have and setup VMWare on them 
with 10.7/10.8 and 10.9 installed as build machines for the binddist.  I'd like 
to start work on apt-file to have a file search like packages.debian.org has as 
well.  Maybe instead of build boxes we could use maintainer signed uploaded 
debs?  I started work on the keychains form debian we could start a fink 
maintainers keychain to sign with?  Anyhow I figure this will be the last step 
but I do believe having a binddist again will certainly help fink.
