We will adapt the webapp to your needs, for example due to a MySQL vs
PostgreSQL issue.
If it is not possible or convenient install it at the 'main' FSF machines with
the higher level of security and confidence, maybe it could be installed at
the Savannah machine. We know that it uses the same GNU/Linux distribution
than the one used by the current gnuherds server, so less software problems.
We know that Savannah is managed differently than other FSF computers. It is
ran by volunteers with root access. That is not good by security reasons, but
anyway it would be a better host than the current one. If we have to do
administration tasks via ssh, we will not require root access, just a normal
user account.
Let us know anything we must modify or feel free to modify it.
