I have been meaning to offer. I have cable modem, and a linux server... for the time being, I update my website w/ my DHCP supplied address http://www.thinman.com everytime I reboot. Sometime soon I will be getting back my "router" from Siemans so my network will be back in shape and a array of servers can be available. I will also be getting a Dynamic DHCP account from http://dyndns.org . Also the linux society has a box, http://209.61.182.150 . The man w/ the root password has been delaying giving it to me. I will have to take care of that. If you want the user password for this box I can give it to you encrypted, or over the phone. If either of these options interest you, please let me know. The plus of my network is that its mine. The linux society server is in Rackspace in Texas and I am not sure how flexible they will be. But since the support us... maybe they will be interested in DL as a sponsorship. In fact... (thinking, thinking) this may be an opportunity to create reduncancy against the day that SF stops being so generous. ==== About uClibc, there is a little method to the madness. ==== I am thinking of a distro system that uses BusyBox as the Initrd where the Initrd is the basis of the whole system and includes the OS, SSH and OS related packages, and IPTABLES as the kernel default. The server packages, however, would almost be considered value-added products, coming from the tradiional linux sources, even possibly proprietary vendors. Keeping the inital distro tiny gives it the flexibility to go anywhere (like bad girls do ;) ) -- including my favorite target, the cell phone. Also let me add, that I am enrolling in an interdisiplinary college to finish my degree and the linux society management will be my focus. eLSD is of course DL warmed over.
