Dear Debian system administrators,

We'd like to request Debian hosting for a KGB service¹ instance.

 ¹ https://wiki.debian.org/Services/KGB

Below you can find the rationale and the requirements. If a change
would make the idea more suitable for Debian hosting, please say so.

Why is it good for Debian
=========================

The service is used by 53 #debian-* channels.

Moving to a single, Debian-hosted instance will improve the service by:
 - removing the need to upgrade/reconfigure three instances
 - increasing stability (currently hosted on personal servers with various
   degree of stability)

Hosting requirements
====================
The expected load is rather low, CPU% is seldom higher than 0.0. Memory
footprint was seen to be 200M after 30 days of running, and the expected
network bandwidth is about 200 MB/month.

In terms of access, we would want to be able to:

 - install/upgrade kgb-bot and kgb-client packages (plus dependencies),
   possibly from backports, unstable or git

 - start/stop/restart/reload/status the kgb-bot service

 - read/modify KGB's configuration:

   - modify files under /etc/kgb-bot/*

   - create/modify/delete files under /etc/kgb-bot/kgb.d/

   currently permissions look like

   drwxr-xr-x root root        /etc/kgb-bot
   -rw-r----- root Debian-kgb  kgb.conf
   drwxr-x--- root Debian-kgb  kgb.conf.d
   -rw-r----- root Debian-kgb  kgb.conf.dpkg-dist
   -rw-r----- root Debian-kgb  3dprinter.conf
   -rw-r----- root Debian-kgb  android-tools.conf
   -rw-r----- root Debian-kgb  apt.conf
   -rw-r----- root Debian-kgb  archlinux-reproducible.conf
   -rw-r----- root Debian-kgb  boinc.conf
   .....

 - read /var/log/kgb-bot.log* (-rw-r--r-- Debian-kgb:root)
