I agree with Jeremy that we need to do something about getting the site
up ASAP, and support the idea for a vote by 3 PM EST vote. It sounds
like Anvil isn't a solution for now, so I think we need to look at the
other two options. I'm happy with either, but if I have to choose, I say:
2) Get it up on Dan's Machine
That said,. Id really be just as happy with 3) Put it up here at OSU but
I voted for Dan's because he offered first and because it sounded like
he already has some of the needed stuff installed on his machine from a
previous temporary hosting situation..
