an admin team for the new European servers

[damien clochard <damien(at)dalibo(dot)info>]

hi folks !

As you might know Continuent has donated 4 servers to the community :

  - 2 for PostgreSQLFr 
  - 2 for PostgreSQL Europe 

As far as we know, here is the profiles of the machines :

 *  HP ML370 G4
 *  HP ML370 G4
 *  HP DL140G1 - 3 GHz Xeon - 2 x 80 Gb - 1Gb RAM
 *  HP DL140G2 - 2.8 GHz Xeon -  80 Gb + 250 Gb (SATA) - 1 Gb RAM

For now this 4 servers are in Grenoble. They will be moved to Marseilles in 
the first days of December and placed in Dalibo's datacenter, which is 
operated by Lost-Oasis ( http://lost-oasis.fr  http://www.ielo.net)

The installation and configuration will be done by Dalibo ( probably Jean-Paul 
Argudo and Cédric Villemain ). But beyond that, Dalibo wishes to delegate the 
administration of the servers to community members...

Concerning the 2 servers given to PostgreSQLFR , an admin group composed of 
members of the french association will be created...

Dalibo would like to see such group created to administrate the servers 
dedicated to PostgreSQL Europe.

So here's a bunch of questions for you all :

 1/ Who wants to admin this 2 servers ?
 2/ What do we install on them ? What do we need ?
 3/ How do we name them ? ;-)

We have something like 30 days to answer these questions :-)

I'm sending this e-mail to pgsql-www to see if they have ideas or advice on 
the subject.

Regards,
