Hey guys,

It's that time of the year again.  The server that currently
hosts the k-f repository is up for renewal.  However, my partner
in crime, petef, wants to ditch it.  I am currently not making
any money off the server, unfortunately, in spite of plans to do
so.  Since I am not especially interested in paying US$1k/yr for
it, I'm going to need to move the master repository elsewhere.  :(

Currently, the only choice I can think of at the moment is to
move it to my fileserver at home.  Offers from others would be
nice, since my home DSL uses the same ISP as freebsd.kde.org[1].
I think we should continue to host it on a server that doesn't
host or is near any other k-f resources.  Just my opinion,
though.  Obviously, since I haven't been involved in the project
much for a long time, it's not of especially high concern to me.

The server is up for renewal on October 7th, but we will likely
extend it through November 7th, if we can.  I'd like to move the
repository as soon as possible, given that time frame.
