<pre wrap="">My understanding is that this would be largely acceptable. The Fedora team
(Infrastructure, releng, packagers) would likely need to be very involved in
figuring out the exact ways that such a merging of resources would take
place and whether it would be useful (for instance, some company donating
hardware for a secondary arch but not putting in any of manpower to run the
servers, paying for bandwidth, electricity, or rackspace to host the
hardware might end up being told that the contribution of the hardware isn't
useful by itself).

A very large donation might have other ramifications that I would imagine
are largely positive, but seeing as companies that have donated to this have
all been of a more moderate level (a few servers with hosting at remote
facilities, allocation of people at remote facilities to provide hands-on
technicians if needed, etc) we haven't had to deal with that.
