You don't really need to trust anyone, what you want to backup is publicly available anyway, right? Then you can make a tarball or something and just publish it in some obscure path in the web. Then anyone willing to do a backup only have to download that tarball. If is not too big, you could also open a gmail account and send the tarball to that account (I did this for backing up a small server). > > The gdc category was disabled at the bugzilla I host by request of someone > > on the gdc project ages ago.

Maybe when GDC gets merged this could change, as the I think the userbase of GDC could grow a lot. But even then, maybe is not too hard to move a bug from one bugzilla instance to another. Also, did you tried to put your infrastructure in gcc.gnu.org, as other languages tend to have they home pages in gcc.gnu.org/lang, it might be a good idea to have something like gcc.gnu.org/d. But maybe you want to have more control over the server and I guess you can't really request that until GCD is completely merged. Just thinking out loud. :) -- Leandro Lucarella (AKA luca) http://llucax.com.ar/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- GPG Key: 5F5A8D05 (F8CD F9A7 BF00 5431 4145 104C 949E BFB6 5F5A 8D05) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Si por el chancho fuera, se autocomerÃa con chimichurri Worshestershire!
