In my mind the pledge system should also cover things like this -- the
debt related to the new server seems like a new-server-related expense to
me.  Knowing that no pledge related charges have been made as of now, I'd
be willing to contribute up to 5 pledges.  Which I believe is ~$10/m.  It
seems as though the financial issue has been resolved already though.
