Cloud or dedicated/managed?

Real hardware and lots of it. Once we get moved over and everything's humming along nicely, we'll do a writeup or two about the new infrastructure.

Nice, I'm really looking forward that to that. I'd love to hear about the transition too - big moves aren't easy, as I'm sure you guys know.

What FS will you use? SSDs?

That'll be great...and hopefully address one of concerns about having our private repos sitting on ATAoE storage.

What concerns are those?

that was my guess, you guys have a big dev following, rackspace has marketing money that can be reallocated to hosting github.

good luck
