Certainly it's your call for the makerspace; as for VCF we still aren't 100% decided about using that product. Eric noted that it would take a bunch of customizing to meet our needs. Also for any organization, especially a growing one like VCF, it would be poor business practice to put our data on any individual's server or any account at all that is not fully under our control. Like a "cloud" server, for example.
I know it's your favorite pasttime to make fun of that idea, but -- yes. By "control" I don't mean security. I meant we would want a business account with accessible support staff, receipts for all expenses, and so on. Clearly you, Martin, and any number of VCF members have the * capability * to run a pro-grade server; I'm just saying it is poor form to rely on individuals who have their own priorities vs. companies that are paid to perform a given service. This is not an attack on anyone's ability, experience, skills, or tech.
