zwiki.org offline, awaiting backup

Crossing fingers, looking for future solutions

The host of zwiki.org (and with it all the wikis on wiki.zope.org) are currently offline due to technical problems. To me it looks like filesystem corruption (about the only thing that can bring a ZODB to its knees). Simon requested restoration from a backup from his provider after trying all kind of things. We'll have to wait for that now...

In the meantime we can meditate on how much of a community service zwiki.org and wiki.zope.org really are providing. Simon currently has a very small hosting plan, so I'm thinking about finding ways to get together the means to upgrade zwiki.org to a bigger plan (see his provider's VPS plans), Simon currently has VPS-1, which is really tight for such a big and busy Zope site. Getting him to put zwiki.org on VPS-2 would be the fastest and simplest solution. Ideas?
