Re: [dev-context] How to help ConTeXt?
Hi Junod I forward your mail to the context dev list. The primary sites to get context are our website (source code) and the internal svn server (manuals). Taco and Patrick are the ones who take care of the wiki, mirroring, announcing and such, so they can best tell what help is needed as soon as files leave our servers. Thanks for offering.
Hello Hans,
I falled in love with ConTeXt and would like to help the project. I'm a swiss student in computer science, ie I've no money to donate. But I would be really happy to host a mirror or somethig equivalent, if needed, on one of my german servers (big machines, fast networks).
Let me know if you're interested!
And thanks for having created ConTeXt!
you're welcome

Hi Junod, This is more for Patrick, I think. A backup/mirror of the contextgarden stuff may be a good idea My server (http://context.aanhet.net, holland) hosts a mirror of the pragma-ade site and the subversion manual repository, and I do not see a lot of traffic from that (less than 1GB / month). There is also Patrick's mirror at http://mirror.contextgarden.net (germany), so my guess is that the pragma site is nicely covered (within west-europe, at least). Cheers, taco Hans Hagen wrote:

Perhaps a CPU/bandwidth donation could be used to combine the newly prepared archive of old ConTeXt files with "ConTeXt live" to get the benchmark working (repository with test files to be compiled with different ConTeXt versions), but this would need some man-week(s) first, not only CPU. Mojca
Hi Junod (I see, you are on the list) and others,
This is more for Patrick, I think. A backup/mirror of the contextgarden stuff may be a good idea
So I have to make a plan how to do that. Perhaps I should store all files/database dumps so that they are available at some place so that they can be mirrored as well as making the apps available. But more than mirroring I need ruby/ruby on rails developers. Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki and more: http://contextgarden.net
