The future of c4countdown -- your help wanted!
Posted: Tue Sep 24, 2013 6:29 pm
As some of you may know, this forum and the wiki has been hosted since 2008 on Cambridge University's student-run computing facility, which basically means it didn't cost anything to run. Alas, I've finally stopped being a student and quite soon we'll have to stop using the SRCF. I've moved the wiki to a new host, the informatively-named 5quidhost.co.uk, and since the wiki is basically part of apterous I'll continue to pay for that myself.
Next up is to move this place. I would like to move it to 5quidhost and keep it free to use and free of ads. So what I propose is that we all chip in and see if we can reach the heady heights of £5 a month. We can pay month-to-month and do this as an on-going thing, but best of all would be if we can reach £150, at which point we can get a massive 50% discount and pay for the next 5 years all at once. So that's the target. In the unlikely event that we actually get a surplus, I'll give everyone pro rata refunds.
So, let's give it a try. If you'd like to donate, click the button!
