Is OSAF a "501(c)(3) non-profit"? If so, this recent snippet from
the DreamHost newsletter may be of interest:
> 4. FREE Hosting For Non-Profits, Forever!

> Speaking of charitable for the holidays, we've just changed our non-
> profit discount policy.

> We used to give you half off any hosting plan as a non-profit,
> forever.

> Well, we decided to change all that. If you're a US-based 501(c)(3)
> non-

I use DreamHost myself and find it to be a really nice place to
manage things, with good access speed and updated software. They have
one-click installs for things like wiki's, Rails hosts, subversion,
MySQL servers, Jabber servers, etc.
