Hi Rupert,
We'd be open to any jurisdiction that provides an appropriate legal foundation for our operations, as well as meeting our technical and topographic needs. However for this specific proposal, we're looking for a US-centric location that can serve as a backup should our Ashburn location fail, among other uses.
Thanks.
--Ken.

Hi, would you be open to a data center outside the US in future, and if no, why not?

The Wikimedia Foundation's Technical Operations team is seeking proposals on the provisioning of a new data-centre facility.
After working through the specifics internally, we now have a public RFP posted[1] and ready for proposals. We invite any organization meeting the requirements outlined to submit a proposal for review.
Most of the relevant details are in the document itself, but feel free to reach out to myself or the list should anyone have any questions.
Please, feel free to forward this link far and wide - have colleagues, contacts or friends in the data-centre sector? Then please, forward it on! :)
Thanks!
