Hi Alex,

/var/www/qgisdata is a separate mount/disk if I understand correctly:

/var/www/qgisdata$ du -hs *
11G     debian
6.0G    debian-ltr
8.0G    debian-nightly
4.1G    debian-nightly-ltr

15G     downloads
547M    QGIS-Documentation
1.9G    QGIS-Documentation-1.8
5.8G    QGIS-Documentation-2.0
5.9G    QGIS-Documentation-2.2
6.6G    QGIS-Documentation-2.6
7.0G    QGIS-Documentation-2.8

1.6G    ubuntugis-nightly-release

we need the upcoming year at least 2 or 3 more rounds of Documentation
(so say 30 Gb), some downloads (say 15Gb too).
Not sure how fast the debian and ubuntu repo's will grow, but lets do 25
for these too? (@Juergen?).

So max 70Gb?

If I'm correct the downloads stuff (NOT the debian/ubuntu/docs) is
mirrored between some machines (I think to download.osgeo.org and
another machine of Juergen) to spread the load of downloading installers
after a release.

But I do not think it the actual 'downloads' is the problem, I could try
to slim down the QGIS-Documentation output a little.

For me off course #1 is easiest (for us).

for #2: /me looking at Juergen: are the debian and ubuntugis files also
created on osgeo4? Or rsynced from qgis2?
If last, is it an option to move those to osgeo6?

#3 would mean a higher burden on the two servers which are serving 2.16
now (though we already miss qgis.osgeo.osuosl.org now because rsyncing
stalled...)..

About retiring osgeo4: we are still investigating a move from redmine
(issues and wiki), IF that succeeds, we will only serve static files
from osgeo4 if I am correct...
