I did discuss with St=E9phane Vincent, their representative, that we might want to host some services elsewhere - we have previously talked about hosting the website on OpenShift. I've asked him (and am waiting for clarification) on whether that might affect their offer. =20 I would like this cleared up. Suppose we get another hosting offer we still want the freedom to move some services.
+1 I agree we want that flexibility, ultimately. For a comparison, the model I've been looking toward is the Fedora Project's. They have a number of hosting-provider sponsors, and that is handled this way: * There is a big list of all these sponsors at https://fedoraproject.org/sponsors * When you go to pages on the website e.g. https://fedoraproject.org/ there is a graphic and link in the right-sidebar that identifies the hosting sponsor who actually served up that page. Of course, that system is different than what we have - they have round-robin DNS setup, etc. But it's a nice idea - you get systems spread across multiple, unrelated hosts for heavy redundancy, and it's a clever way to show the very real service the sponsor is providing to the community. - Karsten --=20 Karsten 'quaid' Wade, Sr. Analyst - Community Growth http://TheOpenSourceWay.org .^\ http://community.redhat.com @quaid (identi.ca/twitter/IRC) \v' gpg: AD0E0C41 --------------enig73FD4676C5EDED072FCD129F Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://www.enigmail.net/ iD8DBQFQbGi62ZIOBq0ODEERAhIlAJ9uQQuIjfHfSK1pKMli5kAIrxb+vwCfVTQ1 246bE4XnrJoQ8yGHQ2vaa+w= =fhks -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig73FD4676C5EDED072FCD129F--
