I think we want to investigate forking commons too. If any of you fine folks could use a vps, what specs do you need? I prolly have a little space to make one. :-) Debian ok for starters? I'm not sure forking is a good idea right here, right now, but it's always useful to check that failing to an external backup is still tractable. sincerely, Kim Bruning -- _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
