Hi Antony, that sounds good if you want to have a go. Just need a server now. I unfortunately can't offer any of my own machines for this as the only ones which could handle the load are now used by a large research group. I'd also need all sorts of permissions.
But if someone volunteers the server resources and is prepared to give you access, then sure, go ahead. You don't need my permission. Bill.
