[wlug_org] Hard-Drive for Caddy

[Wood Brent]

I believe the value of a hard drive is as a repository of files, poss ISO's for
members. The problem has been access to it.

If we stick a drive in the caddy, is anyone interested in/able to host it for
members. ie, downloading relevant ISO's & keeping it online as an ftp server
for members to download from? Prob with a link (by Jethro of course) from our
web site...

Then perhaps also bring it to meetings for members to copy files from.

If we could have it on-line, I think it would be much more useful for members.

I know a couple of commercial interests that may be prepared to host it,
depending on traffic. If this is a possibility, then purchasing a reasonable
drive for it may be worth doing?

Let me know if you think this worth pursuing & I (& anyone else with contacts)
can see if we can get someone to host it (or sponsor the hosting, in which case
would it still be OK to have Debian ISO's? :-)
