So we must find:

- Someone who can host the mailing-list and who has time to manage the
server.

Our servers* are powerful servers running with Debian, mirrored by DRBD,
backupped to another datacenter at night and used for shared hosting.
There are hostmasters who manage the servers. The only thing I had to do
would be configuring Mailman. This is done once and then it runs forever.

Do you know the count of users and traffic of the Gambas ML?

I can't access the subscription interface of the mailing-lists anymore, so I don't know exactly. About 500 users for the user mailing-list, far less for the developer mailing-list. As for the number of mails, you can see it on the mailing-list archives on SourceForge. It gives you the number of mails by month. And maybe I will merge the developer and the user mailing-list. One mailing-list to rule them all!


One web-packet there costs 5€/month, has 1GB webspace and 10GB traffic
included, I would have no problem to donate it to the Gambas community,
but for sure there are better ways to finance it (maybe a Gambas
Foundation, that is owner of the web-packet?).

You will tell me. There is 500 users ; each mails had a limit of 512 Kb; there is about 300 mails by month ; most of the mails are... let's say 16 Kb. So: 16 x 300 x 500 ~= 2,4 Gb / month.
