Hi Moritz, We should probably talk further then since I'm in Iceland atm and would also like to see a high capacity node here. May I ask for your reasoning though? A lot of people on both sides of the pond have believed that IMMI has been passed here already when it has in fact not (yet). I'm in touch with those trying to pass it and it comes up for major review in september. Have you tried talking to DataCell? They would be much more open to running an Exit node and if you talked to them personally might be able to offer some discounted rate here. -kupo On 07/26/2012 02:14 PM, Moritz Bartl

Hi, What can I say that hasn't been said by others before... :) We are in contact with reliable ISPs with endpoints in various countries. They would be willing to cooperate on exits at these locations. We have not yet talked about prices. I would say we (as in Torservers.net) are in the position to run multiple Gbit/s servers for prices at below $1/Mbit at "not your typical ISP". In theory, we would be able to fulfill the 12.5 Gbit/s alone. We're about to test a 10Gbit uplink with a Xeon behind it to find out how far we can push a single server. That said, we should discuss and come up with a good organizational structure to reimburse people. Personally, I would only sponsor 100 Mbit/s or more (or maybe even only Gbit). I would set up a template that asks for ISP information, so we can reject too many exits at one place (say, a maximum of 1 Gbit/s or even one server per datacenter?). Do you plan on reimbursing up front for a longer period, or only after? We would likely need the money up front at least on a monthly basis. Another option we have that might be more convenient is to decide on the twelve/thirteen server locations up front and then ask the community to fill the slots. Given that there are places where you get Gbit for around or less than $500, we could use the "extra money" to fund some slower locations. I would very much like to see a high-bandwidth Iceland exit. The last quote I got was 500 Euro for 200 Mbit/s (including hardware) at Advania/ThorDC. |
