Hi Mark,
Thanks Mark.

There's a number of different things we have going but the only thing we pay
for is the hosting and archives storage. That's through Rosehosting. IIRC
its  virtual Linux server running mailman. Bryan could give you the
technical details.

Invitation

Hello John,

Paid a month, hope that is ok, thank you for everything you have done.

When you say "keep everything going", what is that exactly, is it a windows
server? or a hosted service?

I ask because I use Amazon to host some sites and I am curious what sort of
processing power / bandwidth / storage we need / use.
