I'm sure people would offer money, servers, and pipes if there were some 
public accounting and governance.  Right now, we don't really know

- What services are being run?
- How many resources does that take?
- Who provides those resources?
- Who administers these services?

Take a look at this: <http://db.debian.org/machines.cgi>.  This is the 
sort of thing we need before we can continue planning our system 
resources.
