[Theforum] hosting... where are we at right now?

Memo from Martin P Burns of PricewaterhouseCoopers

-------------------- Start of message text --------------------

SysAdmin are apparently working on requirements, although it hasn't
appeared on the wiki as yet. Last visible discussion on the sysadmin list
is at http://lists.evolt.org/sysadminarchive/2002-June/000038.html

Marketing are working on a 'why give free/cheap stuff to evolt' statement
which is currently at
http://freezope2.nipltd.net/acorn/evolt/EvoltEvangelism

It slipped my mind (and apparently everyone else's), but we do have another
standing offer:
http://lists.evolt.org/theforumarchive/Week-of-Mon-20020401/003730.html
which is free (as in beer).

You did some investigation and couldn't find anything negative about them
beyond that they use VMWare-type partitions for hosting.
You suggested at that time moving beo there as a first test:
http://lists.evolt.org/theforumarchive/Week-of-Mon-20020415/003828.html
which sounded sensible.

I've got exams in less than 2 weeks so may not have time to follow this up
in that timeframe.

Cheers
Martin




Is this being worked out on one of the sublists? If that isn't the case,
why has four weeks not been long enough for this group to get something
moving?
