A few updates which can all be undone:

I've bought po4a.org and pointed it at OSAS DNS servers for now.    Let me know who should be listed as the various contacts and if anyone needs direct access to anything.  I've got it parked per the below.  Fedora Project is donating the registration fee.

OSAS has agreed to host our site and mailing list.  I am putting the sysadmin in contact with Martin to get the ML settings.  We can choose an alternative provider if we want and I will not block.  I am at a conference with the OSAS sysadmins and took advantage of being in the same room with them.

They are building our a zone file for po4a.org and building an rsync landing space for our site as well.

Let me know if there are objections.

regards,

bex
