Russ,

Thanks for the news. I was hoping that this set up would work as it is easy
to get relatively cheap hosting based on RaQ and Linux.

One more question, if that's OK: at the moment we are doing without a
database (information is stored in XML files). However, we may need to get
one at some point. Which database system (low cost) would work OK in this
configuration?

Many thanks again.

Jarek
