I've got 3 sites on my machine (HoF, FA and CT). They're all mine and not
'owned' by anyone else. Is this a hosting situation? The logical answer is
no. CFHosting, VirtualScape and others have people renting space on box. The
people don't own the box and there are multiple sites owned by multiple
people. Is that a hosting situation? Logically, yes. The issue is making
sure A/MM defines hosting properly. If they don't, then small guys like me
and anyone else with more than one domain name will be hurt. On the other
hand, if they're dropping the price for the 'single domain' version and
keeping the price the same for the hosting version, then there's no real
complaint.
On the other hand, they use the term "Hosting Service Providers" throughout
the document. While parts can apply to someone like me, the HSP doesn't. I
think all they have to do is define what a HSP is.
I know that A/MM is watching these lists and are gathering our reactions. I
think they're going to come out with some solid information on this soon. I
love you people but we are programmers and one of the psychological traits
of a programmer is paranoia. How much is the question, but when we're all
together we feed off each other. And of course, the paranoia may be totally
real. :)
