This is the start of a requirements document. Dave A was going to pretty
it up some. As far as I know, the only thing which has changed is that
we're now on CentOS 5, and I think Xen, as opposed to OpenVZ.

Actually, in terms of basic or having lots of features, the above posting
spells out mostly what our requirements are. Before we go off looking for
hosting services, we should know better where we're going, as this will
influence what we need to look for in terms of RAM, processing, HD space,
and bandwidth.

As to things which might have changed a lot, I'd like to see that
documented.
