yep, we need a projector. Sooo...how much is a projector? Oh,
about $800. Hmm...we have no budget, so, Hey Bill, could you donate
$800 so we can buy a projector? grin
If the JUG hooks me up with another contract like my current one,
I'll be happy to throw in a projector, too! :)
I haven't
Geez Timo, did we offend you? First you dis our job
offering, now the wear out the welcome crack. ;)
Hmmm... that job email seems like it was a long time ago... I do vaguely
remember taking a jab at the description, which I think was fairly
boring and vague, eh? ;-)
The point, perhaps
Any name of record for the account would be fine with me. Maybe we
can reach an initial agreement on the particulars at the next
meeting, hop on the net, and sign up for hosting on the spot. Or
whoever takes the ball for getting the site up could pay themselves
and I could send them a check.
Why, we're just poor programmers! You're not implying that our time
is worth more than our money are you???
But seriously, I agree entirely. For something like $18/month for
hosting, the informal approach would be more efficient than dues.
Popping for chips and coke to lure college students
just our
next preso.
Cheers,
Timo

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
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.,
What does being sysadmin entail at this point? Putting aside the
existing Confluence setup (it's easy to do again, right?), I see this:
* Obtain account w/Rimu
* set up mailing lists, migrate accounts
* migrate website
* migrate email accounts (is this needed? who else has one besides
you,
Additionally the sysadmin/webmaster would have to answer service
requests (which I do get from time to time).
I'm also throwing in things like:
Setting up apache with mod_jk
Setting up other services like subversion/trac/etc. (but yeah those
things can come later)
General plan might be:
