I'd like the upload limit to be raised to at least 40MB. I'd like to upload some free classical music from Pandora Music that is more than 20MB and cannot be split easily without a loss in quality. For example: http://music.ibiblio.org/pub/multimedia/pandora/vorbis/chamber_orchestra/MAR... http://music.ibiblio.org/pub/multimedia/pandora/vorbis/piano/Goldstein/Varia...
I am aware of the message in October 2007 to this list: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/htdig/wikitech-l/2007-October/034344.htm...
Has much changed since then?
40MB is useless, almost as useless as 20MB. I'd like to see it increased to 1GB, but structured as an unprivileged temporary drop-box on a separate server with trusted user intervention required to get it from there to the wiki.
I don't think more servers are required for now, just a bit of development and system administration work.
