I also have a standing ok to offer RFA resources and bandwidth for Linux
Audio stuff as well. Though at first impression I'm thinking an academic
sponsor might be better for all concerned. If needed space and bandwidth
are available here. I don't always have time to follow the lists, so
mail me directly if I can be of service in this regard.

What type of hosting service does linuxaudio.org have now in terms of
space, bandwidth, accesibility of physical site admins and access for
remote site maintainers?
Currently, the server hosting Linuxaudio.org has been arranged by Daniel
James, so my guess is that it is hosted somewhere in UK, other info is unknown
to me (ironically the site is currently inaccessible for whatever reason).
Daniel?
That being said, in my department (Virginia Tech) I've got an ok to offer
hosting for LA purposes which would mean direct physical access to the
mainframe, virtually unlimited data storage (I am not sure how much we have
right now but we should have probably close to 1TB and there is plenty of
empty slots left on the mainframe for more disks to be added), and most
importantly unlimited bandwidth (although the actual outgoing line is limited
to 100MBit from the node where the mainframe is, but the actual monthly
bandwidth is unlimited). Finally, all data is backed-up weekly with one backup
always being off-site in the case server melts down, dissapears, decides to
grow legs and walk away, or whatever.
Hope this helps!
Best wishes,
