How about a middle of the road solution on the website?  Consider
this for some thought.

I can offer a home for the website with good connectivity at this
time I can give up the bandwidth for the cvs and download areas.
Also, I don't have any extra boxes lying around but will have
a decent-ish box in the next few weeks (currently upgrading
a large number of servers and I'll have extra).

I can get a box setup and give agreed upon people access to the
site (perhaps we setup an OpenACS site, don't know and it doesn't
matter at this point).  For CVS and Download access we'll point
to the SourceForge stuff?

It is not a perfect solution but could be a good middle ground, no?
It would at least get a large part of aolserver.com on, well, AOLserver.
