account there will probably be disabled some time after I graduate (which
hopefully will be at the end of this semester). So I'm looking for an
alternate host to host my homesite in.
I do. However:
1. I have a limited quota on vipe, which I'm also using for E-mails and high volume mailing lists. I could always try to ask for more, but would rather not push my nagging quota to its limit.
2. I do have an account on stalker.iguide.co.il. However, it is a limited quota, per-pay account. If I want my quota to become unlimited and me to get the root password, I'll need to pay 200 or 150 per month or so, which I cannot afford to at the while. When I get a job, I will get this account, and promptly move my homepage there.
Other than that, I'm using a large part of my limited quota to maintain
private versions of Berkeley DB 4.0, Apr, Apache 2 and Subversion, which
take some space. Furthermore, I have some Subversion repositories there
and version control can get larger in time.
I don't have any objection to hosting free software versions *that are generally useful* on iglu, or even beak. The problem is, as usual, deciding which is more useful.
If IGLU has the space (which I slightly doubt, but I'm not sure), I think you are welcome to host free software stuff there. I think you should try to keep your homepage elsewhere, though.
