+<p>
+<b>What happened?</b><br><br>
+As you may have noticed, we had a failure again. Our filesystem got corrupted, even
+some files from CVS are corrupted or missing. We are searching possibilities to
+refresh the hardware, also we have an opportunity to change hosting place to a faster
+line, but only a 1U can be placed there, while we have a standard Midi-ATX case.
+<p>
+<p>
+There are two options:<br>
+ get a new 1U server and place it to the offered place<br>
+<b>or</b><br>
+ get someone offering a server and a hosting place
+</p>
+<p>
+For the server we already collected some donations at LinuxTAG - roughly 70 EUR -,
+but that is just not enough for a single disk update. Now we are searching for special
+discounts, monetary donations, or the better, a whole configuration. Note that regarding
+the monetary donations, we would like to spend the whole sum on the server avoiding
+problems of having money lying around somewhere.
+</p>
+<p>
+<b>How to donate money?</b><br><br>
+<ul>
+<li>Possibly Paypal is the easiest way. Use poirierg at gmail.com as
+destination.</li>
+<li>European bank account where you can send money to:<br>
+<pre>
+Bank: Raiffeisen Bank Rt.
+Bank address: H-1054 Budapest, Akademia u. 6
+SWIFT code: UBRT HUHB
+Account name: Beregszaszi Alex

+Kerchof Hall
+P.O. box 400137

+</pre>
+</li>
+</ul>
+Please in every case write <b>MPlayer</b> in the comment field!<br>
+</p>
+<p>
+<b>The following minimum configuration is wanted:</b>
+<ul>
+<li>1U casing (this is the most important part)</li>
+<li>Dual 1 Ghz or Single 2 GHz CPU</li>
+<li>1 Gb RAM</li>
+<li>2x 200 Gb HDD in RAID-1, preferably SATA disks</li>
+<li>... and 3x300 Gb HDD for backups to another server</li>
+</ul>
+</p>
+<p>
+We will report about financial status at most in a month! If you have any
+questions please contact us via mailing lists (mplayer-dev-eng), irc or
+privately at alex <at> fsn <dot> hu.
