Hi,
I could setup a virtual machine (allocating 2 cores on i5-750 and
2 GiB RAM) over not too much used 2/2 Mbit line ... would that
help?
what are the requirements for the builder, and what is the
typical usage, maybe ten relatively slow machines over slow
lines, which I guess every second of us could donate, would be
better than one fast machine on a fast line?
is there any howto for setting up the builder?
btw, note that I'm willing to donate my computing power, Internet
bandwith and my time to set up the builder, not my time to watch
it and keep it running, so we also need some volunteer to
administer that builder

Hey folks,
Due to a variety of reasons, I've been scaling back my
involvement in Fedora, MythTV, related projects, and Linux in
general, outside of work. As a side-effect of that, I can't
really justify paying as much as I do for internet access
anymore, and the only thing preventing me from dropping my
relatively high-priced business class service for something
consumer-grade and 1/3 the cost is the fact that the one and
only active rpm fusion build system sits on that pipe. I'd
like to see another system (or systems) elsewhere brought up
sooner than later, so builds can be migrated to them, at
which point, I can retire the box at my house, and not drop
the extra money every month for the pipe and the power to
keep the box running.
Of course, its probably possible to keep the builder going on
a non-biz pipe, but it might violate terms of use or some
such thing, and/or not be nearly as reliably reachable...
Either way, I'd like to drop the internet bill by the first
of December.
