Dear Will,

The offer of space for an rsync would be gratefully accepted :)
There's different things we can rsync so we can be flexible in terms
of space.

Would you like to drop in to our regular Tuesday irc meetup to sort
out details (if this isn't convenient just let us know a better time)?

Rufus
