Hi Folks - So, I think many valid issues have been raised, especially Dan's and Karen's in regards to longevity and exit strategy, and long-term hosting of code4lib.org needs to be thought out carefully. But instead of delving into that at the moment, I'm starting a new thread here, because I personally have an immediate need for the site to be back up, and I believe we can do that outside the bounds of the long-term discussion. What I would like to propose is that we decide today how to get the site back up for the short term and where it can live during that time. Since there needs to be more extended discussion for planning out the long-term location of the site, I am fairly certain that there will need to be a migration of the site to its long-term home no matter where it is brought back up to now. So, to that effect, here's what I think the current options are: 1) Get it back up on anvil 2) Get it up on Dan's Machine 3) Put it up here at OSU I'm not pushing any of these immediate solutions - I just want the site back up. So, are there any other options to deal with our immediate issue, or can we do a quick (by 3 PM EST, say) vote on the above and get moving on bringing the site back up? -- jaf =============================================== Jeremy Frumkin The Gray Chair for Innovative Library Services 121 The Valley Library, Oregon State University Corvallis OR 97331-4501 [log in to unmask] 541.737.9928 541.737.3453 (Fax) 541.230.4483 (Cell) =============================================== " Without ambition one starts nothing.
