Maybe we could use a scalable architecture.  Starting with one PC and one ADSL 
connection, (exactly what we have now), and grow up according to the needs:

   1 PC   the first year
   4 PCs  the second year
  10 PCs  the thirst year


  The original hardware (ca. 1998) that was used by Google

      Sun Ultra II
      dual 200MHz processors
      256MB of RAM

You are right, the project will need money. It is already spending money from 
Neal and me.

Let's wait to the final RMS decision, and then we can update the project 
roadmap.
