  10 <h2>New Hardware Donations Pledge</h2>
  11
  12 <div style="margin-left: auto, margin-right: auto">
  13 <p><strong>Pledge start:</strong> 2010-01-13 23:00 UTC</p>
  14 <p><strong>Pledge status:</strong> [2010-01-14 11:00 UTC] $2381/$1600.</p>
  15 <p><strong>Pledge end:</strong> 2010-01-14 11:00 UTC</p>

  18 <p><strong>Pledge details:</strong> This was a huge success! I am absolutely
  19 overwhelmed by your support, and deeply appreciate it. While I was asleep,
  20 we ended up with +$772 extra balance; I created a special section at the end
  21 of the page for this "repo.or.cz fund".</p>
  22
  23 <p>What was this all about? UPC cannot donate repo.or.cz hardware and
  24 connectivity anymore, so we arranged for connectivity sponsorship from
  25 <a href="http://www.mff.cuni.cz/">Charles University, Prague</a> - the <a
  26         href="http://www.ces.net/">connectivity</a> should be equally good as
  27 at UPC, even better on university backbones over the world. However, we had
  28 to buy our own hardware, and there is where your donations came in! They
  29 managed to cover the full cost of the already bought hardware plus left
  30 enough extra money for some hardware upgrades.</p>

  32 <!--
  33 <p><strong>Pledge details:</strong>
  34 Unfortunately, Czech UPC terminated the
  35 sponsorship of the repo.or.cz Git hosting service hardware and connectivity
  36 on a fairly short notice (after generously donating it for several years).</p>
  37
  38 <p>We have secured at least provisional hosting at the <a
  39         href="http://www.mff.cuni.cz/">Charles University, Prague</a> - the <a
  40         href="http://www.ces.net/">connectivity</a> should be equally good as
  41 at UPC, even better on university backbones over the world. However, we will
  42 have to buy new rack server for the hosting service from my
  43 own pocket and this is where we need your help - we can't afford to
  44 sponsor the full price of the server, and reasonably powerful rack hardware
  45 ain't too cheap (repo.or.cz _is_ quite a workload!).</p>
  46
  47 <p>Thus, we would like to ask you for donations for the new hardware - the full
  48 cost is $1400 (CZK 24000); we would like to gather more in order to be able to
  49 buy a RAID0 pair disk and more RAM. Any extra money would all go to
  50 repo.or.cz-related costs, most likely hardware upgrades in the future.</p>
  51
  52 <p>Please send any donations using the button above; they will go to
  53 pasky@ucw.cz paypal account clearly labeled as repo.or.cz donations.
  54 If you would like to do a bank transfer, please send the money to
  55 <code>IBAN: CZ39 0800 0000 0015 7768 9003</code>, <code>BIC: GIBACZPX</code>
  56 with message "repo.or.cz" and also send me a mail with the amount you sent
  57 so that I can update the pledge status balance timely.
  58 If you would like to donate in another way, please send us a mail;
  59 note that we were forced to act on very short notice and already ordered
  60 the hardware so we appreciate, but cannot accept hardware donations.</p>
  61
  62 <p>Please consider donating if you found repo.or.cz useful to you;
  63 if I would receive a dollar from each user or from each project, it would
  64 pay the cost several times, but that's not likely ;-) - so every donation
  65 counts, however small it is!</p>

  85 <p><strong>Pledge details:</strong>
  86 Unfortunately, the current admin (Petr Baudis) can't spend nearly as much time on
  87 repo.or.cz maintenance and enhancements as it would deserve. Thus, he's seeking
  88 for volunteers to help with both day-to-day maintenance and development. You
  89 will be richly credited and eternal glory in the Git community awaits you,
  90 plus it will surely make a great CV bullet-point! :) We are sure really cool
  91 things could be done by developers with fresh ideas, especially after
  92 the hardware upgrade. <a href="volunteers.html">(more details)</a></p>

 112 <p>Please note that we are not actively raising money right now - your
 113 donation is appreciated, but we will not have an immediate use for it;
 114 we will let our users know in case we would badly need some extra money.
 115 The current [2010-01-14] repo.or.cz fund balance is <strong>$781</strong>,
 116 we will use the money in case of hardware emergency or need to upgrade,
 117 or for other strictly repo.or.cz-related expenses.</p>
