Aside from it being something we've talked about probably wanting
(putting tarballs content in AFS and being able to present a local
cache to workers in each provider/region we use for our CI system),
I don't think it's on anyone's radar yet from an execution
perspective. We've had more recent discussions about relocating our
logs.openstack.org site off that same server and into another
service provider... doing that would also free up plenty of space
for growing the current tarballs site and may well happen sooner
(though again I have no solid timeline for that work, we need a spec
for things like the 404->301 forwarding configuration on whichever
end has the DNS record while waiting out the retention period).
Rough guess is at least a few months given our current team
throughput and priorities.

Based on the numbers you gave, we could fairly confidently provide
sufficient space for images built from the tips of supported
branches since they would be replaced rather than accumulating new
ones for each tag. Hosting image sets for every point release
requires a fair amount more available space by comparison.
