Good afternoon Michael,
how many hours would this job take (per week) and how flexible should I be?
Regards Alex

Hallo zusammen,
ich habe das hier bereits an discussion@fsfeurope.org geschickt, poste es aber der Vollständigkeit halber hier noch einmal. Ich bin auch so frei und erspare mir die Übersetzung ;)
Dear fellows,
I think it would be nice to have our own multi user unix system that provides shell accounts and maybe additional services to us. Every fellow could have his/her own shell account and access to the following programs:
- IRC clients (e.g. irssi)
- jabber clients (e.g. mcabber)
- mail clients (e.g. mutt, pine)
- compilers (gcc etc.)
- screen/tmux
- git
Additional services could be:
- OpenVPN service, so fellows can encrypt their connection when they are
on the road
- web site hosting
- databases (MySQL, postgresql etc.)
- SSH tunneling
- File storage
In order to start this project, the following two conditions have to be fullfilled:
- Enough fellows have to show interest in such a system
- Besides me, I would need two other fellows with skills in Linux/Unix
administration (and maybe in IT security) who will take care of the system
If this will be the case, I would suggest the following procedure:
- I would rent a single server system and an additional FTP account as
backup space
- We (the 3 admins) would build up a system with some basic services,
harden it and develop/implement scripts for the automation of administrative tasks like account creation etc.
- We and some some volunteer beta testers would play around with it
- The FSFE would take over the server and its rent
- The system would be open for all of us
- Additional services could be added
What do you think?
Cheers, Michael
