last 10 years or more. It could also have a subdomain of my shaferlabs.org
site so there would be a fallback if someone stopped paying for the
ktechlab domain name, something like ktechlab.shaferlabs.org. I can also do
the web development. I may also be able to keep the domain name going,
after all, it's only 6.85/month from ipower...

<pre wrap=""><!---->Thanks for your offer, and also thanks to everybody else for offering help
keeping the wiki and the website alive (naming Mauricio and Jonathan-David
here, I hope I haven't missed somebody). IMHO it's important that all the
wiki data isn't lost again, like it was the last time. So it would be really
cool, if you, or anybody, could set up a small webspace area, where we can
put the wiki.
Concerning the top-level domain: I don't think, we really need this to keep
the project up and running. It would be enough to have a sub-domain somewhere
and point there from sourceforge. In fact, I have got ktechlab.sf.net in my
bookmarks to go to the wiki and the project page. So ktechlab.org is just a
nice feature, that isn't really needed. What is needed is some space and a
webmaster, that helps to keep the stuff running.

<pre wrap=""> Some info
I run Gentoo and Ubuntu linux on my servers.
I have a rack of 9 supermicro servers with plenty of disk space
I have good web connectivity (six 3Mb DSL lines with Cisco modems, load
balanced)
So you can see I'm not a fly-by-night here today, gone tomorrow company.
Please let me know if I can be of assistance. This would be my long term
gift to the OS community and I would love to do it. Sincerely

for the project und put some free time into doing the webmaster job?

Absolutely. This would be one of my babies, and I'm ready to pay for
the renewal of the TLD out of my pocket if I'm chosen for the task.
Space would be unlimited and bandwidth would not be a problem until we
become as popular as KDE!!! I'm prepared to keep things running for 10
or more years even if it sits stalemate like it has been. (I think a
little active web development and super slick website would go a long
ways to bringing this project back) Since I'm not a C++ or QT guy, this
is a way I can really help. I don't want to take total control of the
website, just be the custodian and let the community be a big part of
what goes on and what decisions are made. I am NOT trying to take over
per say, just to do my part.<br>
