Hi Thiago -

Thanks!  But RubyCentral has been great about providing financial
support for RubyForge, and since gifts to them are tax-deductible that's
where the money should go.  

The current hardware is powerful enough to handle the load, it's just
that something's flaking out on us.  We're in troubleshooting mode now,
and if we can figure out that we need to buy something we'll go to
RubyCentral and ask them for the funds.  If they need money I daresay
David or Chad or Rich will post a note here.

Thanks,

Tom
