Hi,

In Mozilla Hispano, historically we've been paying the servers from our
own pocket (a small server o shared wasn't too much) till a year and a
half ago more less when mozilla stated to pay for our server via Reps.
The domain has been always property and paid by Mozilla.

In terms of local space, for us is not that important since we are a lot
of different Spanish speaking countries so working online is a must for
us (regular meetings via audio and sometimes video). When we have to do
things locally such as events, we've been trying to find free places or
ask for Reps budged when that wasn't possible.

Speaking about modelling, I've been documenting our experience in a
series of blog posts here:

I hope that helps you!

Regards.
