How much bandwidth do you need? Uptime? Four nines or five? How many backups do you want? How often? On-site or off-site? What level of disaster recovery are you willing to pay for? You can pay a lot, or you can pay a little. > Although it's not hard to host it myself, I like the idea of it being > offsite and presumably on more secure/stable hardware than what I > could assemble here on my tight (read empty) budget. That's a lot of presumption. I was dealing with a major hosting provider who disappeared off the Internet for a while because their peering partners linking them to the Internet hosed the routing tables. Happens to everyone. There's a lot of folks out there offering hosting services. I've seen some real disasters. Do you really want them owning your source code? So, if you have no budget, how are you planning on paying for this? Seems like a lightweight hosting site might be a better choice, and admin and backup the svn repository yourself. You might even go for the straight encrypted drive hosting, so you are in a little less danger of having your code disclosed. That could keep it offsite and perhaps get closer to your budget of zero USD. -- Ted Roche Ted Roche & Associates, LLC http://www.tedroche.com _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
