Out of curiosity, what is the benefit of having the hosting with HumaNum[1] as opposed to ADHO? Doesn't this shift our eggs out of one basket and into another?  Or is it cloud-based hosting with redundancy or something? Not arguing against it, just curious as to what it gets us. (It might be better, for example, to have a mirrored site or geographically dispersed copies for redundancy and load-balancing, but still seems like overkill to me.) 


Many thanks,

James

There’s an (exploratory I think at this stage) effort underway to move the website hosting to HumaNum. I’m not sure what the implications are for our other services. Probably we should schedule a meeting with the interested parties before things progress much further. That message should come from Martina as Chair I think.

Kathryn was suggesting (in her recent mail to TEI-L) that  "we have already begun to make significant changes to the TEI-C infrastructure in response to last summer’s server fail. Thanks to outgoing Board member Laurent Romary, our webmaster Luis Meneses is working with HumaNum to establish a more reliable foundation for our data.“ — I don’t know what that means?!? Has anyone some insights?
