NashJS uses the exact Github solution that Bucky and I have proposed: https://github.com/nashjs The group needs to avoid having our hosting solution paid directly out of your pocket, or anyone else's for that matter. You know as well as I do, particularly after working with other user groups for the past year, that can put us in a bad spot when that individual is no longer in a position to pay, etc. Since there are perfectly adequate free solutions, let's use them. Github groups also have the benefit of allowing members to share their repos. NashFP uses this to great effect, since it allows members to easily share their slides or other projects they've presented with the group, as well as work on those projects together in the future when there's interest. For those of us interested in kernel development, we could even coordinate or at least track our collective efforts this way. Simply paying for hosting a website doesn't give us this option, in fact it will require one of us to keep updating the content. Considering we can't even get talks scheduled or posted on the Meetup with more than 24 hours notice, I don't have a lot of confidence a single individual is going to be able to maintain a website, too. We're a LUG, let's distribute and open source our effort when it comes to publishing code. That was the nice thing about the wiki, but as you pointed out that might not be the best implementation now.
