I am interested in joining in on this.

I am willing to do almost any job in such an organization (except money
collector).

I can donate time definitely!  Chip in Money, most likely.  Got hardware
that needs a home, definitely!

The hardware I have available right now are a pair of DL380 G2 servers
Dual P3 1.2Ghz, (at least) 1GB RAM, RAID of 6 10k U320 SCSI 18.1 or 36.2
drives, Redundant PS.  One machine has Remote Lights out management
card.  These would be great for database or management.

If anyone is interested we can setup a virtual PBX w/ Asterisk.  If when
you guys say "sugar" you mean SugarCRM then the link can be setup
between Asterisk and it for CTI.

I with some business partners have a XEN DomU machine slice in Equiniz
in Virginia but would like to have a "real" machine hosted somewhere.
My actual needs are redundancy on DNS, MX and some Asterisk Development
space (bigger drive space for streaming and recording conference calls.)

Let me know what I can do.
