Re: Concerning the homepage

What happened was that the *second* server also broke. It didn't start 
when they plugged it in (they were actually nice enough to go fetch it 
for me). Meaning I've spent like 500 euro on repairs and transports and 
still sit with a broken server.

I've temporarily moved the modsurvey homepage back to my university, 
although I think I'm probably breaking the network policy for server 
naming that way. But ssshh... don't tell anyone. :-)

I've given up on continuing co-location, but I still sit with a contract 
with the hotel. We're currently discussing if I can convert it into hiring 
space on a virtual server or something instead.
