What about tossing it up on EC2 on a micro instance? Assuming you wouldn't
need much, and it would be free. Or Heroku would be free for one worker.
I also use Linode, webfaction and slicehost. Slicehost is shifting to
rackspace cloud, can't speak much for them anymore really, my server hasn't
been migrated over yet.
Linode has been great, and webfaction is always quick and easy to setup if
you can run in a shared environment.

I have a slightly off-topic post but hopefully the community will help
out.
I recently received an email from the company that hosts
satchmoproject.com in which they notified me that they are going out of
business February 16th. What this means is that I'll need to migrate the
site to a new server. It's a pretty basic Django app with the blog, and
store registration. I also host the docs there in static HTML. Anyway,
I'm looking for 2 things:
1. Any good recommendations on who to host with?
2. Is there anyone else that would be interested in helping out with the
migration and provisioning of the new server?
I've recently taken on some new responsibilities with my day job and am
not sure how much time I'll have between now and Feb 16th to get
everything migrated. If there is someone else available that wants to
help out the community, this might be a good opportunity.
I have historically paid for the hosting of the site because it was
fairly low cost and didn't want to run into any issues with "free"
hosting from a community sponsor. I would be open if someone wants to
give a discount but the cost isn't as much of an issue as additional help.
The code base is running an old version of Django and probably needs a
bit of tweaking to get it compatible with Django 1.3 series. It would be
nice to clean this portion up at this time but it's not a requirement.
Anyway, if you are personally interested in helping, please email me off
list and we can chat about your background and whether or not this would
be a good fit.
Thanks,
Chris
