Most of us have sites and systems on shared hosting even without shell access so I assume you can manage without root. I support that you will have root privileges but we have been in this discussion in the past, unfortunately the current admin will not give root to anyone. I don't think we need many domains, we can put all services under hamakor.org.il There is no need I think for many domains. Let's ask all the list here what do you think. Do we still need iglu domain?
