Re: spoon-discuss: Joel's Move

I am not worried about the lists themselves, that would be pretty easy to handle by one of us. my server probably wouldn't have a problem if I had it set up for e-mail. But we won't have any official public forums. (what is necessary to determine a public forum? The Administrator declaring it so?)
I believe that it will be next to impossible to port the web page to another machine within only a couple of days. I think it is incredibly integrated with Joel's machine. Of course, I am just guessing - he'd have to let us know.

If this turns out to be the case, I can probably provide (partial)
alternative hosting for 'em.

The mailing lists aren't a problem; I've been running large mailing lists
for years. The Web page is potentially an issue - mostly depending on just
how Joel implemented stuff. (Perl, PHP, MySQL = good; mod_perl and
postgresql = bad)
