Hi All,
After sitting on the sidelines for a couple months, it's time to take this off the backburner.
I'm quite disappointed that there seem to be no local to me orgs that want to help out with this.
They were either out of our budget or weren't willing to host such a small endeavour, despite it being a good cause.
So, off with their heads, onwards and upwards. We'll have plenty of choice without a "local to me" restriction, which I wanted just in case something goes wrong with the servers -- I can actually physically kick the box.
Ok, so, we're looking for a host with good internet connectivity. I'm not sure if our initial projects will require VMs, but being able to do VMs easily would be nice.
We'll also need some kind of a backup system.
If anyone has suggestions or referrals, please let me know.
I'm hoping to have this up and accepting projects in 2 weeks. Let's see what we can do.
Thanks, Gerald.
