The volunteergrid is a tahoe storage grid from users for users. Contrary to the [TestGrid](TestGrid)which may be flushed at any time for development/testing reasonsthe volunteergrid is meant as a stable alternative to the commercial [allmydata.com grid](http://allmydata.com/). It was [proposed by Eugene L.](http://tahoe-lafs.org/pipermail/tahoe-dev/2009-February/001248.html) in February 2009 and an introducer [was set up](http://tahoe-lafs.org/pipermail/tahoe-dev/2009-February/001341.html) by Zooko after the idea received a fair amount of praise. This introducer unfortunately died when nooxie's upgrade went wrong. A [new, more resilient, introducer](http://tahoe-lafs.org/pipermail/tahoe-dev/2009-December/003290.html) was implemented by [François Deppierraz]mailto:francois(at)ctrlaltdel.ch in December 2009.
There are usually between 10 and 15 active server nodes, but new nodes are always welcome.
There are usually between 15 and 20 active servers. Volunteergrid is not accepting new members at this time.
