When the time comes, we will see how much bandwidth the CTF takes up.
Right now it is a tiny percentage of what CCC uses. If we can move
to a smaller server, then we will. Tim's job will be reduced many-fold
and he will tell me what he wants to maintain CTF. I will present that
to the people at CTF and they will either opt to make the board self
sufficient or, perhaps, choose to move elsewhere or close down.
