Hi
regarding hosting.
How big is image ? -
@VRonin said in Gerrit Contributions:
where would it be appropriate to host such a big file?
No clue, but if you become desperate I can clear you 100-200 GB on my disk, however my connection isn't really that fast (40Mb outgoing).

Well
https://www.pcloud.com/
give 20 GB for free.
maybe we can compress it.
I will try to see if i can find their markting person and ask if they could donate
100 GB to Qt forum. -
A classmate of mine works for that company, I could make a separate inquiry about it ...

That would be great. its super nice service. Much better than dropbox. -
Yeah, unfortunately he said they probably won't be interested. Especially as they can't monetize at all the simple file hosting. They may want to "enforce" usage of their app, but I told him it wouldn't be appropriate in this case. The problem it seems is twofold:
- there's not much gain of providing file hosting from the company's point of view
- file hosting is expensive for them, and they impose very heavy restriction on traffic, which means it's probably not a viable option for our case
I asked for advice on possible other solutions, but he said it's kind of unlikely to find a decent hosting service for free just for file storage - there's not much interest into it from the companies; paid file hosting seems to be best, but costs money.

Im pretty sure we can find solution for 50 GB. -

That shouldn't stop you from trying to contact their marketing, they may have a different take on it, even if unlikely.

Not exactly what I was told, but it doesn't hurt to try. ;)

I asked Joel Bodenmann since he just installed 1000/1000 and bought 16 TB extra ;)
No harm asking.Update:
Joel Bodenmann will host the wm image gladly.
size really not issue.
