Not necessary for you to get the host yourself. Sorry to have been a little recalcitrant over the last week, but I have just started a new job with <https://status.im> which has been occupying my time. Erik Hülsmann, a CLF board member, rents <https://hetzner.de/> instances for his CRM company which he essentially donates to the CLF at less than costs, so spinning up a host is no problem. We have standardized on Debian over Ubuntu as it makes the licensing situation clearer when we need a “special case”.

If necessary, we would federate the `[email protected]` domain. Currently we are running exim as the main MTA due to legacy concerns with mailman2 databases, but we wish to transition to a toplevel `postfix` that will work with the legacy `exim` for the `mailman2` app. > > I apologize for trying to rush this - I've got a lot of free time currently due to a lull in work going on at my current company. So I and the dev team are currently not doing much. I want to take advantage of the time while I can. Cool. Let’s take advantage of it. > > Let me know and I'll get this out the door ASAP. Can you please provide me with the public half of a contemporary-strength SSH keypair. We’ll set up a host, and communicate root@HOST via ip4/6 under separate cover. yours, Mark P.S. if you wanna find me online, let’s figure out a Discord rendezvous. I’m <discord:347061732705042435> aka <discord:easye#8466>. -- "A screaming comes across the sky. It has happened before but there is nothing to compare to it now."
