This would be a very interssting idea. I think we are not the only one,
with decommissioned network hardware, which would be otherwise subject
to disposal. Not cutting edge, but enough to speak BGP and route
packets from A to B.

Unfortunately, we do not have the knowledge or capacities to organize
something like that. Would there be a need for something like that? Has
anyone the possibilities to collect and distribute?
