What kind of hardware specs are we talking about in this context?
A couple of months ago, I have pointed out that I might be able to donate some (used) hardware - you will find such a message in the archive (although the context was different and not primarily about hardware). Here I have again asked what hardware specs you are looking for. In both cases, I haven't received *any* reply. We have therefore now given some servers to another project, people there were actually quite keen on getting the hardware and they were very thankful for the support. I find this a bit disappointing, to be honest. But if nobody on this mailing list responds to inquiries or questions, I can't do anything about it. The question I posed was simple enough. Okay, it would have been used hardware and no new hardware. But it would have been for free. We may have other opportunities in the future, but I don't know when this will be, it depends on the next round of server and cluster updates. Hardware specs in the current case was rack-mounted dual-CPU quad-core Intel Xeon 2.9GHz, 96GB RAM, 15k rpm RAID. Not sure whether this would have been suitable for your purpose but the servers have certainly served us well.
