I *MIGHT* be able to get a dedicated 11503 Cisco Content Switch for use
as a LB if you want. I can make no guarantees of its success under the
onslaught, but it is better than a kick in the butt.

if its our infrastructure it might be a good idea to do a nightly sync
of the actual fp.o wiki incase the main server goes down.

I don't know of any good way to do this.

I'm wondering if we could just request some budget from max and the RH
folks to grab some public mirrors during release time. I mean,
digg.com has a dugmirrors site for hosts they DDOS, I believe other
such services exist as well. I'm just trying to think of the easiest
solution for our needs. It'd be nice to just say:
1. Freeze the wiki
2. sync the mirrors
3. cross fingers
4. enjoy the FC7 release instead of working all day :)
