Right. However, since we have an existing relationship with SPI :-) I thought
that's where I should start. I wouldn't find it unreasonable if SPI's position
is not to host lists other than for itself, or if SPI partnered with OSL, so
that OSL would offer this service for SPI associated projects.
If, however, SPI does provide this service for SPI projects, I'm inclined to
take the offer. The expectations Joerg mentioned fully align with ours, and so
that would meet our goal of moving our lists to more stable infrastructure.
