Hello,

Does anyone here have a host with lots of disk space and good bandwidth
that they'd like to volunteer for a good cause? 

Since last summer, we have been hosted on tangent.dune.net, a really
great ISP that has backed our efforts to develop a suite of Java-based
apps we'd like to freely share with anyone who is interested. The
current economic climate as well as nasty denial of service attacks
against tangent have us concerned about the future. We've been told that
weeks or months from now, dune.net may be forced to shut down
operations.

We very much hope that that won't happen, but we'd like to take some
precautions and find another host where we can replicate at least our
intranet so that our development efforts can keep going uninterrupted.
Even if dune.net survives long into the future, we would really love to
have another reliable server that we can use to assist with our
development work. Since we're going to be making heavy use of networking
throughout our products, having a second server would really help us out
a lot and hopefully allow us to implement failover should dune.net not
pull through.

What we need is a host running the latest Apache web server, PHP, CVS
pserver, and the Orion Java app server. We need a couple of shell
accounts for our two environments (development and production), and a
couple of user accounts for admin purposes. 

Since ours is a volunteer effort, we don't have any money to offer, but
we'd be glad to help in any other way that we can. 

If you'd like to learn more about what we're doing, you can have a look
at http://dev.noumenaut.com <http://dev.noumenaut.com/> , or you can
listen to <blush> a failed audio experiment (Real Audio format) that
nevertheless conveys the basics and may even make you laugh a little. :)

Thanks a lot!
