what kind of shared hosting? We need shell access as a minimum and even webfaction is about 20 USD a month

Slicehost offers a pretty good package at $20 pm. Linode offers an even better deal:

I have been using slicehost for a number of projects in the last couple of years, and I can vouch they're one of the best in business (they were bought out by Rackspace recently). I heard pretty good things about Linode too. Both of them offer plenty of bandwidth, for ILUGC's use, the basic plan on either one should do fine (if it's only a wiki).

Perhaps it's time to create an ILUGC Fund - we can hold fund-raising dinners/events every six months and people can chip in what they can. I know it brings in all sorts of formalities with bank accounts, etc., but I guess some of you have suggestions as to how to do that properly. Or it can be need-based. We can arrange these events whenever a need like this arises. It will be a great way to catch up with everybody and we can put faces on the new names :).
