Hi Alexander,
Thanks for your interest!
I think most of the time all three of us need to spend would be coordinating by mail or chat. This would include discussing how things should be done or what the goals are or who is doing it.
I also don't care doing most of the work - including the documentation. The most important thing is, that there are two other fellows who are able to take care of the system when I am not able to (holidays, sickness or joining the dark side).
Regards, Michael

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

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
