GetInteractive has proposed a solution for our immediate hosting needs<br>
to take ownership of the site they've built for us.<br>
<br>
It includes setting up a host, giving us full admin, and the providing<br>
monthly updates.<br>

Summary<br>
* ~$500 (USD)/yr for the hosting<br>
* $381.68 (USD) one time for the setup<br>
* ~ $100 USD/month for the monthly maintenance<br>
<br>
Note the board allocated $3000 USD for this project, separate from the<br>
SAC budget.<br>
<br>
==========<br>
We need input from members in the next 24 hours on this.<br>
<br>
I have already supplied a list of clarification questions and expect<br>
answers today.<br>
1. What's the exact stack: I suggested our preferred stack was Debian,<br>
Apache, Mysql/Maria, Php7<br>
2. I asked for clarification that the service contract would be for<br>
doing critical security patches in a timely manner.<br>
<br>
I will send a separate email with my opinions on the matter.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
