Dear Andreas and all,

Nice to hear from you.

We are running servers on real hardware hosted at OVH.com in France.
This is the largest and probably cheapest hosting company in Europe.

I can probably host OpenSC if needs be.

github looks great.
Only the wiki needs hosting on dedicated host.

I would be glad to apply to become part of a webmaster team.

I am currently working on the packaging farm project with Viktor. On the
other hand I am also creating a full computer room with regression test
servers and development servers.  Some working on real hardware, some on
VMs and others in chroots. All machines runs in vlans with limited
connection to Internet. We have VPN connections and a double backup in a
NAS and in a cloud. Several developers joined and gave hardware. I am
quite confident we can collect all working OpenSC hardware and make it
available over Internet. This is quite a tedious job and it takes me 2/3
days every week. Half of my time!

I think Viktor and I would be glad to manage Jenkins, Gerrit and the
various farms (packaging, test, development).

When this is finished, I can be part of the websmaster team. But I don't
like working alone and I would like to share the project with other
hackers at OpenSC, in a collaboration spirit.

Kind regards,
Jean-Michel
