The repo status is as follows: Yo!Africa have a server ready (set up by ENet) and are prepared to give it bandwidth etc. However, we need to find a large capacity hard drive to handle the full repository. We either need it as a donation or we have to find some way of funding it. According to ENet, we need a minimum of a 500Gb IDE drive, but larger if possible (particularly to allow for future expansion). Kalpesh, one of our new LoCo Team members, has offered to help maintain the repo server at Yo!Africa which is fantastic. So, the hard drive is the only thing holding it up! If you guys can assist, you will be our hero of the hour! Is there any chance you can make it for the meeting tomorrow (Wednesday)? Please see previous mailing list messages for details.

U would like to assist with the drive, whats been done so far, and whats the status? I'll try get some quotes locally but am sure I can order it from abroad but the lead time 2-3weeks? Our company is really keen on the ubuntu drive and we believe Linux is the future for Africa especially! We're a software development company and working on bus solutions for the Linux platform, I believe the last frontier cos Linux for the desktop has long arrived! Go Hardy!
