Hi all.
Concerning ticket http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/392
I think the discussion should be brought to the attention of the list. For my experience, I do not
think server administration is well suited for volunteer work. To me, server administration is a
service, more or less like accounting or printing brochures.
Moreover, I do not think precious developer time (the main limiting resource for open source
software IMHO) is profitably spent administering servers (but thanks to all who are doing it!).
In short, I'm suggesting to hire a part time server admin, who should be in charge of software
upgrades (e.g. the trac) etc.
All the best.
