Crawford:

Will the Linux ETC hosting be gratis? When is the earliest it can be done? What do you need to make it happen?

Speaking for myself, I don't care what we run on. I understand that we need our own box, because of the wide variety of services we use, but I don't believe we're going to be taking credit cards soon, if ever, so I don't think PCI is significant.
