Julia,

That would be great if you could host it and potentially someone else could
pair it up by donating another box. Would you be at all inclined in managing
it from the standpoint of checking it out to openmosix developers for a few
days at a time so they can use it without trampling on each other? An 8 way
box like that would extremely useful to anyone working on validating and
making sure the OM code is SMP safe.
