What else would you offer, except the server? What are your skills/how do you complement bitshares?
Even though I've been in crypto for over 4 years now, getting active in a new project is always a change of pace and a learning experience. I definitely have to maintain the server and keep up with the software requirements. Do you have something particular in mind that you would have me do? Or are you also asking for my education? I have a Masters in Computer Science and plenty of certs to go with it.

I'm asking because since the last payment increase for witnesses, running a server is just not enough (in my opinion) to justify a vote.

Yes, you are right. I am not asking you to vote for me unless you feel it will benefit the community. That of course might happen today , in the future or never. As far as the witness pay goes, I think some people try to make an income out of it where in fact that infrastructure should be maintained by people or businesses that utilize DEX and have higher stakes in it and can provide better equipment then what we seem to have now (even though obviously a small VPS can handle now). But with Openledger stepping in now and few individuals that don't depend on that witness income I believe that we can improve the DEX infrastructure by quite a bit and be prepared for a rapid growth in transactions without skipping a beat.

Thank you both. I made an attempt to get a current picture of the DEX infrastructure but most of the witnesses are anonymous and did not offer any specs (I had to guess on yours @Thom and probably got it wrong cause you have so many). Maybe @fav can energize everyone to get the gaps filled:

It's great to see another user of Wackou's BTS tools. Nice stats on your server, and good job on your witness proposal as well. I will encourage @xeroc to vote for you.

I also agree with you about the lack of dedication on the part of some witnesses.

Witness proposal for: sahkan-bitshares


Dedicated Production Server with my Witness runs in New York:



Hardware:
Dell PowerEdge Dual Dual Xeon X5650 Hexa-Core CPUs  - 24 Cores @ 2.66 GHz
64 GB of RAM
240 GB SSD

Data Center:
1 Gbit (GigE) Network Port - Unmetered Bandwith
Network Uptime Guarantee: 100%
Power Uptime Guarantee:   100%
100% GREEN data center

Current Performance Snapshot:



Targeted Lifecycle: 2 years (12 months already paid for)

Seed/Backup/Test node runs in Hawaii:
Currently 8 Core, 16GB RAM, 2TB HDD


Price Feed: BTS Tools v 4.9.0 (Thanks to @wackou )
                    I have disabled Yanubi feeds based on some conversations on the forum. If this needs to be enabled I need an active witness to confirm this for me.

A fair amount of work has been done in the past few weeks learning Bitshares (graphene)  and getting everything aligned properly to launch my witness proposal. It’s extremely important to provide a great service for the DEX users and continue to improve upon those services. I understand the responsibility to the Bitshares community and I am providing my Hardware to exclusively support DEX (I have no plans to run steem, muse or any other graphene nodes on my servers). I believe that we need to continue to build a robust platform infrastructure capable of handling heavy loads at a moment's notice.

Transparency:
- I am not affiliated with any other accounts on Bitshares (not running any other witnesses).
- Emergencies might happen (node upgrades due to bugs etc.) therefore I will provide my name, email, phone number and WhatsApp contact information to the following individuals if they ask for it:
1. Anyone with +100MLN votes for my witnesses
2. Key Developers and Committee Members
3. @fav because fav has strict roll calls and I don't want to miss them ;)
4. @JonnyBitcoin
5. Or as required by future developments.

While it's a common fact that we have many highly qualified witnesses running for the (currently) 21 active witness spots it has got to be mentioned that not all witnesses are active, some of them run node versions that are +50 weeks old and are set up on dated VPS platforms. I am not asking for anyone to be voted down, I am just offering capable services to sustain DEX for the months to come either as a standby or active witness.

If you decide to vote on my witness please check my position at:
https://www.cryptofresh.com/witnesses and if your vote makes me an active witness please send me a PM so I can monitor it after the next maintenance window.
[Edit 14 APR 17: I got voted in last night, Thank you! All issues fixed]

I encourage others to get involved. I will put together some guides to hopefuly make it easier. Here is my first one:
