It's GCC 4.1 with GNAT Ada compiler used to bootstrap
later versions of GNAT-GCC, 11 Mb in size. I have a
server with 1 Gb/month of spare bandwidth, but no clue
if that will suffice. I could find a sponsor, but I
need some numbers first. Free mirrors are also welcome,
if I'm catching your drift :)

Really, what's your plan with this service and how it
will work?
