<html><head></head><body>Hi all<br>
As someone wrote he would like to see existing this project in the future - would it be an idea to ask <a href="http://switch.ch">switch.ch</a> if they would get us this traffic it uses and host the project on their server or colocate our server there? They have mirror for many opensource projects so they could be openminded for this kind of project? Can one of the projectleader contact them and ask? <br>
Kind regards<br>
Daniel <br>

I've enjoyed all the time I've spent hacking away at it,<br />whether running clients or keeping TRAPI running along.<br /><br />I will truly be sad to see it go. (although it'll be nice to get my<br />20Mbit of outbound TRAPI traffic back ;)) I'd like to echo<br />Sebastian's statements above and say thanks to everyone who made it<br />happen. There were many hands at work in developing and running the<br />t@h infrastructure before it because as stable as it's been lately and<br />they all desire a
