I expect you'll get a better offer, but here goes:

I have two sites.  I may have the space, but I may not have the 
bandwidth (home-grade DSL lines). Still, I might be able to park the 
files until you find something better.  How much disk space does it 
take?  How large are the files?

My home site is fronted by a 100MHz Pentium which is not really set up 
for web applications at the moment.  In particular, I haven't got 
port-forwarding to work yet, so I can't offload to one of my other home
machines.

The other site is a friend's.  I'll have to check with him first: same 
bandwidth problems, and I don't know if he has the time to work on this 
in the next week or so.

Whether these sites can do the trick or not, and whether they are ready 
on time or not,  I might still park the files and upload them later 
where desired.  If your entire site is summed up as a monotone 
repository, for example, I could perhaps just sync with it and your 
stuff would be safe until you find something else.

How mich disk space is required?  More than a few gigabytes?

Does the viewmtn site contain all those repositories I see on the fromt 
page?  Or does it just provide a web interface to repositories stored 
elsewhere?
