Great! [we already had some private communication about this]

I don't think python.org will be handing out subdomains, so I think we
can forget about that.

I'm fine with a domain name like buildout.org, and if the price is
reasonable, I'm sure the Foundation can be approached for paying for
it. We would like at least some reference back to "Zope" on it, but
that's about it.

All right, for the server infrastructure, Jens is setting it up. If
you want a website set up, you'll have to follow his guidelines, as he
wants to manage it carefully. Alternatively if it's more efficient for
you, I don't think there's an objection to you hosting it, with the
provision we'd like to reserve the right to be able to move it to the
Foundation's hosting infrastructure at some point.

Thank you *very* much for this initiative!
