Re: [Debconf-video] both of the two full mirrors are down

OK, I heard back from archive.org and they would be more than happy to host a mirror of our videos. They said they can either give us an FTP or mail us a hard drive. Who would be uploading this and which method do you prefer?

Michel, I'm more than happy to help host this material on archive.org. I can give you an FTP site to upload the videos and we can go about making a collection. You'll be able to hotlink and embed videos with ease. Sound good? (800gb + 100gb every year is no issue whatsoever).

If bandwidth to us is a problem, we can arrange for a hard drive to be mailed. Up to you, both work for me.

I have a contact at archive.org and have reached out to him.

interesting math were they redefine "unlimited" :-)

Probably that 10% was before they push anyone to the unlimited plan... it's a worth shoot to try to host the mirror...

yes, please try. currently we have no full public mirror...

As some one has suggested amazon s3, I remembered that Dreamhost has been working on Ceph [1] as they new product for storage DreamObjects [2] I made a quick math and hosting on rsync.net 1TB annually cost 1800USD and doing on DreamObjects would cost 648USD also contact kernel.org & archive.org would be ideally someone knows staff there?

Regards.
