	I’ve got some 20 GiB on a location in USA which I do not
	currently use.  However, I’d hesitate to host any material that
	is /not/ free (e. g., CC BY-SA.)  If the licensing terms aren’t
	overly restrictive, I could probably host the files.

	Unfortunately, I cannot promise a Web player for the videos
	(unless these are in a suitable format for an HTML5-based one),
	though I could probably install some kind of a gallery on the
	host.  (Preferrably a “static” one, such as one of [1–6].)

	To note is that there are also paid file hosting services, such
	as Rackspace “Cloud Files,” which seemed cheap enough the last
	time I’ve used it.

Hey!

Thanks a lot for your offer. I now feel ashamed of "kind of" refusing. It's just that backing up is painful (we have automatic backups but I also backup to my machine which... takes... a... huge... amount... of...time). I am sure Linode would increase our space size if we needed to and asked them. They have been very nice and helpful in the past 7/8 years we're together.

I think I got scared by the 17GB Bob mentioned as we have about 350+ teams per year ;-) I know it's a raw amount and will be reduced, it just seems a bit high for what we do not being Google or Yahoo.

That being said I'd be happy if we could work out a better system that what we currently have which satisfy all parties. And I still owe you one ticket... sorry for the slow response time.
