[Openstreetmap-dev] the server situation

[Jo Walsh]

hello,

Would it be possible to get an update on the server situation? 
Is it anything we can help with, or out of OSM's hands?

You wouldn't believe how much interest there was in openstreetmap at
the open source geospatial conference - such a sense of need for the
service and buy-in to the idea, and really from the GIS priesthood too. 

A chap from the San Diego Supercomputing Centre, John Graham, made a
pretty serious offer of mega-bandwidth-and-storage if OSM would like
it. johng at telascience.org - it might be worth at least thinking about
setting up a mirror there....
