Hi Josh, if all parties agree to pay equal portions then mpkb would pay $33.36 for two years ($166.80/5). BlueHost recently announced an unlimited add-on domains policy, so you can have as many sites join in as possible. For example, if you have ten websites all paying equal amounts, then mpkb.net's share would be $16.68 for two years. On 4/26/07, Josh Jorgensen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I would like MPKB to remain in action, I don't know how others feel. I talked with Laurie Hamre today, and she seemed interested in providing funding, but I wouldn't count on it. It would of course be better to go directly to student orgs, but I don't have the time now. If others on this list could look around for funding, that would be great. Also, Yongho, it would be good to know what the MPKB portion of the $166 is. Maybe you can't know this yet, but at least an idea would be helpful in searching for resources. -Josh Yongho Kim wrote: > Hello owners of the MMUF, MPKB, MIFN, LSA, and MNFTC websites: > > It is five days before the expiration of mpkb.net <http://mpkb.net> > and unless a solution is found, your account and your websites will > disappear. > > The place I work at - Korean Resource Center (Los Angeles, CA) - > agreed to temporarily host your websites so that you can find a host. > I will start moving your sites as I find the time between today and > this weekend. > > Please let me know if you would rather let the website go, or find > your own web host, or try a joint host method as described below. > > -- > Yongho Kim 323.244.5309 > > On 3/4/07, *Yongho Kim* <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>> > wrote: > > Hello owners of the MMUF, MPKB, MIFN, LSA, and MNFTC websites: > > the mpkb.net <http://mpkb.net> BlueHost account, which houses your > websites, is expiring on May 2nd of 2007 - that's in two months.
