[governance] Advance notice of the need to move this list

[Imran Ahmed Shah]

Dear Jeremy,
 
With reference to following email regarding discussion about the hosting and 
mailing list portability options, and as you mentioned about the immediate need 
for replacement of the servers, would you please inform that how much storage do 
you need on the hosting server? Current mailing list 
governance at lists.cpsr.org is Sympa base mailing application, if you can port it 
onto mailman (Python), we can offer following two options:
 
1.    on behalf of IGFPAK.org can offer to provide shared hosting to add 
domain of "igcaucus.org" and mailing list with Mailman application.  (Pakistan 
IGF will bear the cost for a common initiatives).
 
2.    If you need cPanel + 24x7 support as well, select the Shared Hosting 
Package (according to the size of storage required) on netconfident.net and 
confirmation either about Sympa Compliance mailing list otherwise ready to 
migrate mailing list onto Python Engine (Mailman) and inform me. I will arrange 
the account for IGCaucus.Org, regardless the funding collection process (or time 
schedule) to bear the costs you decide. 

 
If you my help, just inform me.
 
Thanking you and Best Regards
 
Imran Ahmed Shah

(My email is down again so I'm replying from the Web archive.)  To avoid the 
list being at igf-online.net, we would need to move the Web site and the mailing 
list into the same place.  I can't give much of a commitment from Consumers 
International about continuity (because everything depends on funding for my 
project work at CI), so the other option is for us to raise some funds and hire 
our own virtual server, where everything can be consolidated under our existing 
igcaucus.org domain.  Does anyone prefer that option?  I suspect it would not be 
too hard to raise the necessary funds, even if just with a "Donate" button on 
our Web site.  We are talking about around $10/month.  In the past there was 
talk about making an application for a grant from a donor like the UN Democracy 
Fund, but this raised people's fears about over-institutionalising the IGC, 
so...
