+  <h3 id="incomingftp">February 01, 2017, Backup ftp server needed.</h3>
+  <p>
+    We are in need of a ftp backup for users to upload sample files to us.
+    Our current ftp, hosted by videolan, is still being worked on, with no ETA for a fix.
+  </p>
+  <p>
+    What we need: public ftp with anonymous upload only, and authenticated read/downloads for developers.
+    space a few TB, speed 1mb/s+. Nothing fancy. Please send mail to projects@ffmpeg.org if you want to help.

     This has been a long time coming but we wanted to give a proper closure to our participation in this run of the program and it takes time. Sometimes it's just to get the final report for each project trimmed down, others, is finalizing whatever was still in progress when the program finished: final patches need to be merged, TODO lists stabilized, future plans agreed; you name it.
