Can you give us a few more details are the possible hosting Farzaneh? 
(who it is where based etc) . And whether this could become a suitable 
permanent site?

Another thing is knowing what their platform and tools are, I am sure 
whoever does the build (Peter? Imran?) will be keen to know that.. Some 
contact details would help.
