Just getting up to date now :)

I have a colocated machine at my ISP with plenty of disk space running OpenBSD, Apache 
and Zope (http://www.zope.org). For portal-stuff and to make it easy for people to 
upload content I generally proxy a virtual domain through to the Zope server. That way 
I can give people access to log in via their browser and upload content. 

If people would rather go PHP instead of Zope, I can just serve the domain through my 
apache server. On the Apache side of things, I currently have mod_perl support 
compiled in for scripting. Unfortunately, I haven't built PHP support into my server 
and it sounds like there are a lot of PHP fans out there :) I can add PHP support when 
I get back to Sydney next Wednesday, if that is the route people want to go. For 
myself I've had a lot more experience building dynamic content in Zope or perl 
(although it's probably about time I did something in PHP).

On the other hand, if you have your own server Justin, and would rather rebuild 
JabberCentral on that, I'm happy to help on the content-building side.

Cheers, Brett
