I've emailed Calvary Chapel Santa Fe and hope to hear back from them
about testallthings.org soon.

I'm really not that concerned if we have the app installers still
functioning with your temp ftp server, and...

... we have even a basic HTTP response:

CrossWire Bible Society

Today we're moving our servers and you might see this screen for a few
hours.  Please check back soon.


I'd be perfectly happy with this.  Most pages are .jsp on our server
right now and I don't think you'd like to setup the umphteen webapps on
a local tomcat installation that we have running.

No, I wouldn't worry about it.  extremezone does a secondary service for
us now I think, so that's something we might need to consider resolving
at some point.

I think we're good.  Is there anything else I need to get you tonight?
