[Box-Admins] Disk space is low on box3

I guess we have two running instances of SS and if we merged them, then we’d only need one. As I understand it, we have source.squeak.org <http://source.squeak.org/> which is the trunk SS. And then we have squeaksource.com <http://squeaksource.com/>, which was inherited from (I think it was) Berne. I always thought the box2 image would go to box4. Would it be possible to have one instance for all the files? Trunk projects and non-Trunk? I guess it would seem sort of odd to have two instances running in the same box. Perhaps it’s necessary. I don’t know. Can they be conflated?
