Now that you ask -and boys and gals... this is NO publicity, I am tyotally unrelated to them- I am using a service in France and they charge me 20 Euros + VAT a month for a Celeron Dedicated, Debian Etch, 1 GB, 250 GB + 250 GB ftp, unlimited bw, fixed IP. Not too bad, I have been using it for 8 month now and the support is ok, too and they also gave me unrelated Open Source advice if you don't take it for granted and say thanks once in a while.... They have about 8 unix/linux flavours off the rack, cheapest I found so far. I just use it for development Aubit/Informix 4GL and have some users on it, have not noticed any downtime so far.
I agree on the no hostilites bit and suggest we close the subject

nine bucks really, that sound good. please... no hostilities please. this is about fun.. i think any cost effective decision is a good one... and seriously.. if you want good service.. sometimes its worth the money. busy working right now as the resident script monkey so i don't have time to do a review of services/fees.
has anyone seen/used anything from an opensource friendly company?

No, If it were a shameless, pathetic plug, I would have plastered it with logos and inserted all kinds of references to the company name. I just wanted to throw the idea out there in the event you were interested. If you are not interested, I'm cool with that, but I want you to consider looking at the link below. It is a friend of mine that I do not make any money off of. He has great hosting pricing (starting at $9.00/month). His packages offer a lot of services at no additional charge, like hourly backups and so on.

All in all I just want to help the community, not make money off of you.
Have a great day

Thats a great idea Lewis, but then ... Kurt won't make a penny off you and as you have to understand...
"this is not a shameless plug", he only wants to make something off a service for which you wish to offer freely to the community.
Seriously Kurt that was just a pathetic and shameful offering. Perhaps you could have mailed him privately and offered it that way. When you send it out to the rest of the community you look pretty pathetic.

how about they do it pro-bono and cap the bandwidth :)
IMO, we just need knowledge sharing.. not massive downloading of packages and source files.
I think an ubuntu-wiki/debian-wiki could solve most of that need. For developement etc... how about a tally of how many people would actually be involved? I doubt that there would be such a huge need for such expensive services.. heck, i'd dedicate a cable modem to it if everyone agreed to it. cheap.

I work in a datacenter in Atlanta, Georgia, USA and have colo space and dedicated servers if you want to build your infrastructure in a great environment. We have all kinds of bandwidth available to us and can sell you anything you need. The datacenter hangs off of Atlanta's 10GigE metro fiber ring, and is broken down any way you need it. We also offer full monitoring services and server management services for just about any DC/Colocation in the world.
Another thing that we have available are full sun cabinets with 2 Cisco switchs,IP KVM, 33 Sun Servers, and PDUs all wired and ready to plug and play for less than $10,000/rack. Perfect for building high density clusters or for dedicated servers.
If you or anyone you know are interested, Please contact me and we can discuss this offline.
By the way, this is not a shameless plug, as I have not given my company name, but an offer to assist in bettering this community. Unfortunately I cannot afford to give our services for free, but we are very compeditive and can work with you to build a solution that best fits your needs.
Thanks,
Kurt

I'd like to motion that this is taken more seriously. I for one would dedicated time to working on any wiki. My preference is Deki-Wiki>Media-Wiki. I'm not sure what process is in place to make any formal decisions please educate me.
thanks

I know I've suggested this in the past, but since then nothing has happened to all these issues and in the meantime changes have been made to my proposed hostingplace: launchpad/bazaar from Canonical.
I'm no developer myself, but I see many positive sideeffects by moving FreeNX to them - easier colloboration/contribution on translation, documentation, homepage management, bug reporting, etc. IMHO.
I, for one, got more positive than before after reading these two pages/links:
http://www.ubuntu.com/news/launchpad2-improves-collaboration
http://blogs.mysql.com/kaj/2008/06/19/version-control-thanks-bitkeeper-welcome-bazaar/
Hopefully this suits the developer side as well :-)

Terje
