I'm sorry if I was unclear or just forgot to say that the donation
itself is done in currency form to FSF Europe, which will buy
and install the machines at the facility kindly donated by free.fr and
already used by FSF Europe for other purposes. From there the machines 
will be dedicated
to the GCC project, my question is just wether the GCC project / SC
accepts this setup or not, and if yes, policy needs to be
decided on access and use (I of course have no more voice on this
topic than any other GCC developper).
