Good.  Ok, I'll review the thread there just to get myself up to speed, and 
will send you the root access (it's not really root) details to you.

Deirdre, if you haven't done the domain name transfer thing yet, could you pass 
the domain to Dennis rather than me?  He's been active with Baypiggies, and I 
trust him with it.

We do have the option of running other services on python-hosting.  For 
example, they appear to allow Zope, TuroGears, or Django installs.  (Has anyone 
heard of this crazy Django thing?  *wink*)  I guess I'm trying to say: moving 
is always possible, but let's see if we can accomodate the CMS at 
python-hosting.com first.
