Last year you (Faustus) baught a new server for DarkSpace, and told us you where working on a FreeBSD version of the DarkSpace backend to run on it, and that this may ultimatly lead to a linux client. Is this still going on? If not, couldn't we just replace the current hardware with the new one and reap the benifits if you don't have the time to work on the FBSD version?
Just wondered where the new server was, since it was baught a year ago, and no-one's seen head nor tail of it. Last we heard was that it was 95% complete.

I heard there have been some hamster heart attackes. That would be the reason for the delay.

Maybe they plugged in some hardware backwards and ended up frying their comp.

They didn't install a new server. I think Faustus just replaced a PSU or something.
