[Grok-dev] Re: The shared hosting story, in print anyone?

[Sebastian Ware]

Ok, I can understand that the concept of traditional "shared hosting"  
is not applicable to Grok/Zope. But the problem will still be there.  
Regardless of approach, supporting a feasible solution is likely to  
increase adoption. Maybe we can define a simple "gold standard"  
hosting product that hosting companies can choose to adopt.
