+ 
+ Hosting wish list (relevant for #53)
+ 
+ What we need:
+ 
+ - Bug tracker
+ - Mailinglists (Mailman with public archives preferred)
+ - Webspace (on a Unix-like OS that works with the webserver targets
+   in GNUMakefile)
+ - Source code repositories (currently CVS, but migrating away
+   from it is TODO #54 anyway and shouldn't be too much trouble)
+ - Commit mails (preferably with unified diffs)
+ 
+ (Unsorted) details to look at when evaluating hosters:
+ 
+ 1. Preferably no third-party ads and trackers.
+    External images, CSS and JavaScript may count as trackers
+    but texts like "supported by company XYZ" may be acceptable.
+ 
+ 2. JavaScript should be optional or not used at all.
+ 
+ 3. Services we don't need shouldn't be enabled anyway.
+    (We currently don't use Web forums, wikis, surveys etc.)
+ 
+ 4. It would be preferable if the hoster didn't have a bad track
+    record as far as user experience, security and privacy are
+    concerned and if the terms of services are "reasonable" and
+    haven't changed too often in the past. Updates in the past
+    should have been improvements and not regressions.
+ 
+ 5. It would be preferable if most of the server administration
+    is done by a trusted third-party (or at least not a lot of work
+    for us).
+ 
+ 6. The server(s) should be located in a country with laws we can
+    understand and follow (or at least not unintentionally violate).
+ 
+ 7. A server location in a country with some kind of due process
+    and strong data protection laws (at least on paper) would be
+    preferable.
+ 
+ 8. Given that Privoxy is a free software project it would be
+    preferable if the hoster would use free software where possible.
+ 
+ 9. Migrating away from the hoster in the future without losing
+    any important data should be possible without writing web
+    scrapers first.
