[TriLUG] In a LUG a long time ago

Dash Systems is providing us (limited) space in their Windstream rack.
We could acquire better server hardware and replace what is in their
now, but we are always at the mercy of who-ever can provide us with
free or low monthly cost rack space.

We have discussed offering ownCloud and other services to our members,
but then we should probably get regular backups implemented first.

I personally like the idea of hosting your own email and cloud storage
server in the cloud. With encrypted disks and network protocols, you
might even be able to secure it somewhat from foreign or domestic
spying. This might be a good sysadmin hack day activity and follow-up
talk.
