Netcipia is another farm that could be seen as a kind of competitor to  
this new xwiki.org farm. However there are some differences:
* the xwiki.org farm will be using the default UI (same as XWiki  
Enterprise) and the same features
* it'll be supported by the xwiki community
* it'll have latest versions installed at all times
* there's no business model behind this xwiki.org farm

I think the target is really different. Netcipia's idea is to propose  
ways for users to sell their content online whereas this farm will be  
more for hosting "intranets"/"web sites".

Anyway the free xwiki.org farm is not fully decided yet. I'd like to  
see more opinions form the xwiki users and dev community about it.

Thanks
-Vincent
