What we need is a simple specification - the disk size we need!
Marc suggested around 36GB, which sounds fine by me too. We're going to
use LVM with regular SCSIs, I assume, not RAID. After all, it's not
unique content, and affordable size is more important than reliability.
Aduva is a bit dissatisfied with us not crediting them enough, given the
amount of support they've provided the community, so I guess I'll dive
into Zope and find how exactly I can insert a picture and a link
just like Compaq's and Ligad's. If you have better ideas, feel free to
offer.
Also, do we really feel good about asking for more diskspace, when a
significant amount of space could be cleaned by wiping out 1.x kernels,
old glibc versions etc. - stuff nobody touches (we're here to provide
the best value for the community, not to preserve the archives
authenticity) - and by loop-mounting the distro ISOs?
