HF Board is already pondering all that, and is about to contact potential sponsors. As mentioned in my #1 post in this thread we hope to find some commercial sponsors that make fundraising a bit less of an uncertain monthly adventure. But that will take time which right now we don't have if we want to keep this forum running. For repositories, wiki etc we got a month longer aiui.
Nevertheless thanks for the suggestions

For the short term solution we need to get some funding to pay basic hosting of TMO.
All other Maemo related services are in a more tricky situation, being hosted by Logica, administrated by Nemein and sharing servers with Nokia stuff. We are trying to solve all the problems but, indeed, it's being painful and slow, even when Nokia has been very clear about it's intention to help and provide support.
That's why backups and listing of any needed stuff is also important at this moment.

Perhaps we could put up a banner on the side, replacing the Community Council logo?
It could be kept updated monthly, with stats like "Maemo.org needs funding! We have EUR1000 in the coffers, plus 500 reserved for this month's servers."
That should get Maemo.org enough cash to tide over until a Kimsufi/OVH/etc. server can be purchased.
Theoretically, a single server would be all that's needed to run the Maemo infrastructure.
