I'm trying to arrange a server with tape back-up at the moment for HoTU - what kind of space requirements are we talking about-  may be able to smuggle it alongside?

Not a definite, but can see if we can make it work....

Oh, also one thing; if anyone has any ideas on good 3rd party backup and 
storage places (or if you can offer such a service free of charge to the 
IGDA) that'd be awesome. As far as I know they'll be staying with 
USA-base Pair hosting, so that might need to be taken into account, but 
I'd certainly like to see the data secured by something other then a 
RAID array and perhaps partial backup, or whatever is currently assumed 
to work.
