So are you asking for somebody to sponsor you hosting or are you wanting to plug OpenStreetMap? If you¹re wanting to be sponsored hosting then you should probably provide a few more detailsŠ - how busy is the site? - what¹s it written in? - what are the bandwidth requirements? - do you just want bandwidth (I.e. you¹re hoping to drop down your own box but be given free traffic and a place to drop it)? If I was considering sponsoring you hosting I¹d definitely need to know the answers to at least those questions first and I¹m sure quite a few others as well.
