I'd be -1 to this as well.  The machine would pretty much be an 
exception to how everything else is managed, and like with the pastebin, 
spam and abuse are something I'd rather not have to deal with.

Nigel's point about sponsors intending for their donations to benefit 
Fedora is seems pretty big as well - it seems like they could be 
donating their servers directly instead (and some seem to do so 
already).

Thanks,
Ricky
