  3. Advogato's Trust Metric by KDan · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Advogato's trust metric looks really interesting. Has it been tested to resist attacks in practice?

  4. dinner / non-profit free colocation by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 1, Informative

    on the conference registration page ( LINK ) it looks like the conference is running a fundraising dinner for a nonprofit group that offers colocation and hosting for non-profits LINK called the California Community Colocation Project. From their site: We provide free colocated Internet access to individuals and non-profits. ... and it looks like they operate solely on donations to keep them going!

    Wow. Talk about a good cause.
