The Education Project has asked for download space months ago. All we currently have are:

• the Board redirected us to the Build Service people
• the Build Service people tell us that hosting directories/packages not directly created by the Build Service is not really what they want

So I think it's time to move the AI back to the openSUSE-Board to get a decision about the place where such "non-OBS" data should be stored. I even don't think about Online-Repositories (like the ones from openSUSE-Education) here - on Sourceforge or even on Novell Forge it is possible to get:

• SVN access (like git.opensuse.org, svn.opensuse.org [Whom should I ask for a new repository?])
• Mailinglists (like lists.opensuse.org - [Whom should I ask for new lists?])
• Wiki pages (en.opensuse.org [well, that's easy in openSUSE, puh!])

• File Storage (?)
• Bugzilla (has anyone from the community really tried to get a new "Product" or "Category" in the Novell-Bugzilla...?)

Comparing the openSUSE offers with the ones from Ubuntu (Launchpad), the story for openSUSE looks like:

• different, not well known places to go and ask for permissions
• no File Storage outside the Buildservice
• no easy to use/administrate Bugtracker (as admin, not user)
• every openSUSE service only available with a Novell Account

So, at the end, I want to ask two questions:

1. Is it possible to get 60GB - 100GB space for the Education project to host the Online-Repositories and ISO images in the near future?
2. Is there already a proposal/idea how to get rid of the above "cons" to get more "Hackers" using openSUSE?
