One of the things I'd like to do is to improve our infrastructure in Europe |
| 4 |
so that we may be better able to support EU users and developers. |

I've secured 5-10Mbps of high quality bandwidth, along with rackspace for |
| 7 |
5-10U of servers. Now, we just need hardware to utilize it. |

Since many of you are in the IT field for your day jobs, I figured I'd see |
| 10 |
if any of you work for a company or know of someone that might be willing |
| 11 |
to sponsor a server for our use. We can use some older hardware, but our |
| 12 |
biggest need right now is for newer (2GHz+, 1GB+ RAM or equivalent) |
| 13 |
hardware that can fully utilize all the bandwidth we have available to us. |

In return, Gentoo will work with your company to help promote them through |
| 16 |
various methods such as mention on our sponsors page, short feature |
| 17 |
articles in the GWN and other alternatives. |

If you have any questions or are interested in more information, drop me an |
| 20 |
email or catch me on IRC. (because of shipping costs, import duties and |
| 21 |
general hassle associated with international transport, I'd really prefer |
| 22 |
that the hardware be sourced from the EU) |
