The alternative to hosting with some external company or org would be
to gradually build up our own community-driven hosting.

The steps would roughly be:

1) Interested and capable volunteers or part-timers are given access
to the WikiEducator servers. They can then also install & update
extensions, etc.

2) We rent an additional server, and the aforementioned group will
help setting up a high availability solution.

At this point we could have COL paying for the servers directly, as
opposed to going through me.

This is similar to the path Wikipedia took in its early days.

Due to my new role at WMF (Deputy Director) I won't be able to help as
much as I would like to, so this might work. The only question: Do we
have enough technically capable people who can help with the setup?
