For almost three years ethereal.net (run by Tristan Horn and hosted at collab.net) has provided the high bandwidth server used to seed the Coral CDN. I am profoundly grateful for this key piece of infrastructure. But Tris is moving on and we must find new benefactors. You would be thanked on the site and in my public presentations. I would also consider a more substantial sponsorship relationship.
Without this server the performance of the sheep network will be severely impaired. I cannot say for sure how badly or what counter-measures we'll be able to muster. We have until the end of the week. Thank you.
addendum: Yes, we are working on integrating bittorent, but so far not enough clients configure their firewalls for the swarm to be self-supporting. And the server we are losing also serves as a major seeder. Any help engineering this would also be appreciated!
second addendum: bandwidth found!
