What is everyone's thoughts about us sponsoring a Freenode

and I've discussed them with mmcgrath and he has said they seem doable,
probably on telia1 or osuosl1. Basically we'd be providing them a xen
guest with about 1.5 or 2 GB ram, client servers should expect to sustain
around 1Mbps of traffic, with much higher peaks. Total usage for client
servers is usually around 320 gigabytes per month, while hidden hubs are
generally much lower overall.
We'd be giving them at least a user account on it, they prefer sudo if
possible. They handle the day-to-day administering of the ircd, either
scp'ing new binaries or compiling the ircd on the server itself, and
copying new config files to there.
I've talked to their sponsor liaison and they seem to be interested. Mike
and I wanted to discuss it on here before I send the actual "proposal"
email.
I think it would be a good idea, especially since we use them so much for
our IRC channels, it'd be nice to contribute a server back to the network.

Hi All,
We've applied to be a host about 20days ago, still awaiting updates
from the FreeNode staff.
We hope to be able to host a Freenode server soon.
