Well, servers isn't hard ... various cloud companies will donate them.

What would be hard is writing the tests. I know how they should work,
and the tools to use, but there's about 1,000 to 2,000 lines of code
between here and there.

(This is why we should have encouraged the folks from SFDC and Huawei
who wanted to do testing, instead of blowing them off.)
