We also thought about the option of volunteers runing new services, but for sustainability we thought about the condition to have 3 Fellows commited to maintain the service, before we introdue it to all Fellows.
I really like this concept. We could also explicitly mark these services as provided by fellows for fellows, so it is clear that it only runs as long as there are volunteers to maintain it.
We could even list the people taking care of a service on our homepage with little face icons and links to their blogs/homepages to give credit and to show potential users of the service who's behind it.
FSFE's fellowship would then provide the umbrella, the hardware and cover other related costs.
