We are planning on moving onto traven soon - publication server (not mirror),
probably around the northern winter solstice (late December).

Ummm.... euhhh.... ahem....

Shit may fly in IMC Poland if we don't improve our publication server
reliability, i.e. shift to traven. [This is a personal comment, not a
consensus statement :P.]

Typical income per activist in Poland is probably about 3-4 times lower
than for activists in UK, NYC, Ottawa and Euskal Herria, so hopefully
noone will accuse us of thinking "commercially" about this...

And AFAIK kosmos is doomed: sometime we have to move off it anyway.

Does anyone seriously think there will be a problem shifting the
poland publication server to traven?
