= Sponsoring Gentoo (via Infrastructure) = This is a draft document still.

Preamble
TODO

Wishlist

 * Full-package hosted physical boxes
 * Eg #1: "Root Servers" like those offered by Hetzner
 * Eg #2: You have unused/older servers in your own racks, and can give us full remote access to them
 * The sponsor continues to own and manage the hardware, Gentoo manages the full OS (and IPMI), we just ask for notice to migrate services.
 * Colocation/Physical Hosting
 * Eg: You give us a space, we find hardware
 * We presently have hosting space at OSUOSL in Oregon
 * Non-US capacity needed!
 * Machines
 * Eg: Ship good-enough servers to a Gentoo hosting location
 * US-only presently
 * Money
 * We'll use it to buy/pay for colocation & servers
 * Cash_Sponsors_Policy
 * VM hosting
 * We're moving to use more cloud services, where possible, but we most our services are monolithic.
