I think OpenHosting could spare about $100/month (about half of 8 hr) - anyone else would like to pitch in?

How much (balpark) does an internet connection cost?
a quick check at http://www.teltarif.de gave somewhat confusing information (as with all telcos in europe) but it boils down to:
- ~ 0.9 cent per minute - about 20-30 EUR per month service
if I assume 8h per day, at least 6 days a week, we are at 11520 minutes per month or roughly 120 EUR (24/7 would cost around 400 EUR *yikes*)
anyway, it would be really cool if this could be done by a local provider or a company nearby, because this would probably save money ...
thanks for asking, Herbert

Hi Community!
the util-vserver tools (which started as a rewrite of the existing tools jacques provided) did see a lot of innovative changes and overall improvements in the last year (or a little longer) and we all know that the tools are very important for usability and acceptance of Linux-VServer ...
now we are trying to focus on stabilizing tools and kernel (for 2.6) to such degree, that we might be able to get a stable release in a few months ...
you probably remember the guy doing all that work (on util-vserver) Enrico Scholz, who managed to still maintain those tools while working on his studies ... now (or to be precise, a forthnight ago) he finished his diploma thesis ... -- Congratulations Enrico!
but unfortunately this means that he will leave the university campus, which in turn means that he will lose his internet conenctivity (actually pretty soon, i.e. next wednesday), which again means, that he will not be able to work on that stuff, if we do not find a suitable solution to get him network access ...
it seems that for now (please correct me if you know more than we do) some kind of dial-up (probably ISDN) is the only way for him ... and as he is living in germany, I thought maybe some cool provider could help him there, because ISDN (not speaking of 24/7) is really not cheap in europe ...
so I'd like to ask on his behalf: is sombody able to sponsor/provide/arrange/whatever internet connectivity for Enrico (D-09432 Grossolbersdorf) so that he can continue his work on util-vserver and allow him to work with the community?
please let us know!
TIA, Herbert
