I'd love to run a small OpenStack cloud on the Debconf 13 LAN. The only
problem is to find the needed hardware for the event. Is any of you
coming with a car, and/or have some spare equipment?
GPLHost has a few 1U servers in the data center in Paris, though the
spare ones don't have much RAM. And I have no way to travel with them,
or even rack them out before Debcamp, or in after Debconf (for personal
reasons, I'll be very busy before and after the events).
Thoughts?
Cheers,
Thomas
