ACM is smart enough to discuss some eventualities, and the ZF would
naturally as well should ACM make an offer. :)



I'm working on a proposal which would make services generally
available to F/OSS projects.  It's going to take some time.  The ACM
itself isn't using Zope yet, so don't worry about us / them getting
bored with it too quickly.  Our big project is scheduled to launch in
2011.

Hi,

http://www.zope.org/DevHome/Subversion/ContributorIntroduction

with the pdf agreement:

http://www.zope.org/DevHome/Subversion/Contributor.pdf


Thanks, but no, this is the SVN contributor agreement. We're talking 
about access permissions to the hosting environment, which have some 
other, well hidden, agreement. :)

OK, but who apart from ZC is offering hardware of a similar resilience?



Possibly the Association for Computing Machinery. ;)

I don't think Justizin was suggesting we run this stuff off other 
hardware.




Nah, I simply meant that I don't mind being responsible for another
Apache installation / configuration.


Okay, since nobody else stepped up, you're now the Apache static file 
admin. The first step is to get you set up with access permissions. I'll 
go see who can help you there. I assume you're willing to sign a Zope 
Corporation agreement before you get access? The stuff is running on 
their hosting infrastructure right now and they want to be careful. The 
first thing I must do is acutally hunt up that agreement, which I've 
never seen myself. :)



On the medium to long term, I *would* like to pull in other hardware
besides ZC's, by the way. Of course that would need to be on the basis
of a well-supported machine. Eventually the ZF will want to take over
the zope.org hosting, and probably not from within the context of ZC's
hosting environment.


I will take the next opportunity I have to bring this up with ACM HQ.
We have about fifty servers in Verizon / NYC, and this might be a good
way for us to begin contributing to the community at an organizational
level. :)

Hi there,

The DNS situation is under control, so we should be able to do stuff
with .zope.org soon. What it does need is servers that can actually
host content, but that's not what I'm going to ask in this mail.

What we need as a minimum very soon is a way to serve static files from
www.zope.org/foundation. At first I thought there was no apache that
could take of that, but then Chris Withers got out the real truth: there is.

So, what's needed next to the DNS Czar (Justizin) is a Static Site Czar.
What I need from the Static Site Czar is:

* someone who has or gains access so they can configure static sites,
and give the rest of us minimum access so we can upload pages.

* a single point of contact I can just ask to do stuff. Like, we have
www.zope.org/foundation, and this is the HTML that should go into it,
please make it work.

The expectation is that the Static Site Czar will have less work to do
in the future, as we probably eventually will move these bits of
zope.org to be hosted by a content management system. This just seems to
be the most straightforward intermediate solution.

So, who is volunteering to be Static Czar?
