This is getting a bit off topic. We're already getting too emails on this list. Topics should focus on things that are of interest of WLM now.

I would suggest you continue this conversation on commons-l

Ok, did you try running a workshop with 20 people in kosovo over a
slow internet connection?
for single people it is fine maybe, but we need to have a fast local
server. I am looking to get hosting on the local backbone.

I tried to get people to upload to commons at our bootcamp

had IP blocking of new users, we had the uploader failing, it was
horrible and a waste of time. I need a solution that works and we can
control and debug. also the wiki was running slow.


Mi experience was the total opposite, I talked recently with the top
uploader from my country (Andrei_kokelburg, with 1366 images so far [and growing] currently the 6th global uploader) who is a *first time* Wikipedia contributor and tried to suggest him better tools like Commonist. His reply was the standard uploader is easy and good, he does not need anything else.
