G'day, mates. I'd definitely recommend Rimu. I've been with them for the
last 2-3 years, after initially trying a couple of other Java hosting
outfits. Rimu gives you a full virtual system, and you can install
whatever packages you want on that system (as well as configure
iptables, etc., however you want). I just use Tomcat on mine, with
iptables port forwarding so that incoming requests on port 80 get
redirected to 8080. That way I can run Tomcat non-root.
Besides the flexibility, Rimu also has a great set of how-tos for
everything from Tomcat and MySQL through email setup.

Cool, thanks for checking into that, Chad!
I'm +1 for rimuhosting...assuming we can get enough dues collected to
cover at least 12 months, preferably 24 months.
Until we are a non-profit organization with a bank account... somebody
will have to personally handle the hosting/payment, eh?
I think we should figure out a bit more of the "organization" and
"business" stuff before we get the hosting solution and dues going
Thoughts?
I agree. Also, one thing that wasn't mentioned in the email (and I
can't find on their site) is email accounts and mailing list
management. With our current solution it is very easy to add new
addresses as well as manage the mailing list (which is also something
that I do on a regular basis that I would gladly hand over to someone).

RimuHosting got back to me. They will waive the setup fee
and give us a 10% discount, which works out to $18/month for
a linux VPS with full root access and choice of distro, 96MB
ram and 4 gig of disk:

These guys have great support too, they are very helpful plus
have a bliki with lots of specific HOWTOs on setting stuff up:

If anyone knows of a better deal that gives full root access, pipe up.
Lets get this moving...
P.S. As for hosting it on SourceForge as was suggested, I'd
personally rather have it hosted on something we have control
over - with a wiki, and with subversion, and anything else we
think up.
