Hi, my name is Rob Kudla. I've been providing hosting for the Gambas
wiki at gambasdoc.org for about 6 years. The wiki needs a new host.
The Gambas wiki is currently running on a pre-2.0 release of Gambas,
because the operating system on which our host runs is too old for anything
new
ying to avoid
was well-meaning suggestions for where my company should get its hosting
from in general, since we and our clients have many other requirements
unrelated to Gambas.
