Me neither. And frankly, I don't care about the emotional barriers.
Whatever happened 19 years ago in some dinky midwest college town is
irrelevant to me sitting in New York, Afghanistan, or California in
2010. Caving the the ghosts of Grex's past is what's keeping it back
more than anything.

Grexing from Jalalabad or Kabul? Whoa, haha, nice! I've got NY and CA in
2010, too..and some EU places mostly. A2 drama only taints the whole
experience with Green Acres episodic comedy not worth reading.

imho an m-net based solution is far from _outside the box_. seems a bit
insestuous in fact. the problems that seem to hinder the growth of grex are
not avoided by moving to that box. the further away from M-Net cyberspace gets
the more I -for one - would like it.
when your engine blows a gasket you could fix it with a used motor - sure your
could even drop in a NEW motor. the important thing is if you blow your gasket
you are not treating your motor properly.
the problem as I see it has less to do with hardware and more to do with
process.
I really wish I had more time to get involved here but for now its just 2
cents from the peanut gallery.

re #27
There's a handful of users on either system. M-Net has no hosting costs.
I don't see how Grex would be in harm's way by converging on hardware.
Split virtual systems would be a piece of cake.

Another possibility would be running both in a FreeBSD jail.

To swerve back to topic...
If the answer to the hosting issue gets us to sharing a box with M-Net then
I imagine if Grex goes down then M-Net likely has as well :\
Having a location to hook-up that is disconnected from that hub is only
logical (in much the same way as hosting via M-Net piggyback seems logical)
Putting all the eggs in one basket is seldom the wisest couse of action.
-call that cent 3 ;)
