I run 3 colos and I would be happy to provide hardware and bandwidth. It's
not a service I would use but if someone was interested in maintaining, I
could probably have a dual core box with 1tb raid-1 storage and bandwidth
online in short order.  If someone wants to put together a maintenance team
and ping me I could get everything going for them.
