Hi Rinus and All

Thanks for your reply and your willingness to setup such community site, that's great news.

the

site 
here 
in 
Nijmegen.

I suggested a LAMP hosting, as those guys are expert in their business; they normally guarantee a certain up-time level, good Internet speed, backups, tons of pre-installed software, etc. They (any hosting, I don't have a particular preference at this stage) have to excel, as the market is saturated, if they want to survive. But it seems you are already working on your server, so I look forward to registering myself !

The only thing I dare to suggest, if you haven't thought so, is that the hosting of your Clean-based web-app demos be in another machine, to avoid potential downtime. This because the resources, performance and security impacts the web-apps may have in the machine.

Thank you again, really great news!

Regards
Carlos Aya

Hi 
Carlos 
and 
everybody 
else 
on 
the 
Clean 
list,

Carlos, 
you 
are 
right.
We 
are 
a 
very 
small 
team 
and, 
as 
you 
said, 
we 
are 
indeed 
very 
busy 
exploring 
new 
avenues 
for 
the 
language.

I 
agree 
that 
a 
wiki 
would 
be 
very 
helpful, 
because 
it 
allows 
everybody 
to 
make 
contributions, 
not 
just 
the 
Clean 
team.
By 
making 
these 
contribution, 
you 
and 
everybody 
else 
who 
likes 
Clean 
can 
help 
to 
make 
Clean 
more 
accessible 
to 
the 
world.

We 
already 
discussed 
this 
in 
the 
team 
and 
decided 
to 
set 
up 
a 
wiki, 
but 
we 
did 
not 
yet 
had 
the 
time 
to 
do 
it.
For 
reasons 
of 
stability 
and 
continuity 
I 
think 
it 
is 
best 
that 
we 
host 
the 
wiki 
site 
here 
in 
Nijmegen.
We 
now 
have 
more 
manpower, 
so 
I 
expect 
the 
wiki 
to 
be 
available 
within 
a 
couple 
of 
days.
We 
will 
make 
an 
initial 
framework,  
but 
of 
course, 
the 
wiki 
has 
to 
be 
maintained 
by 
all 
it's 
users.

On 
the 
suggestion 
of 
changing 
the 
name 
of 
Clean: 
no, 
it 
won't 
change.
When 
I 
type 
"clean 
functional 
programming" 
in 
Google 
I 
get 
a 
lot 
of 
hits, 
most 
of 
them 
seem 
to 
be 
pointing 
to 
relevant 
pages.
I 
don't 
think 
that 
changing 
the 
name 
will 
help, 
it 
will 
just 
cause 
more 
confusion.

I 
have 
to 
admit 
that 
I 
am 
pretty 
bad 
in 
PR.
I 
hope 
you 
can 
all 
help 
us 
to 
make 
the 
Clean 
brand 
more 
popular.

What 
we 
in 
Nijmegen 
can 
do 
is 
make 
Clean 
more 
useful.

When 
the 
wiki 
is 
in 
the 
air, 
I 
will 
tell 
you 
more 
about 
the 
latest 
developments.

Greetings,

Rinus
