We'll do what we can, Jon, but sometimes it requires your particular touch
. . . ;-)
It's time to renew our web hosting account. I'm researching a switch
to dreamhost.com. The basic account has unlimited MySQL databases,
CVS, mailing lists, etc. A lot of the stuff we are looking for and
have had to piece together from various places. These features
(especially the databases) would enable us to develop more interesting
services for our readers.
Any thoughts?
None whatsoever. but that's because I have no understanding of the technical
side of things. If you think it would be a good move, though, I have no
objection to it. I take it the SQL databases will allow things like easier
management of the Editor Companion and automatic addition of issues to the EC,
though my shortsighted undestanding cannot see anything past that. Mailing Lists
as part of the server? Would you plan on switching the Aon-Announce again? What
about the Freelists ML? What about automatic downloading of updated files/archives?
More questions than answers for you, Jon. Sorry about that. :-\
