http://vi.freeforums.org/index.phpWhat do you mean by GNU sources? I guess you mean a LAMP stack as this
is phpBB? Not doubt there are loads of free (beer) possibilities
there.
I personally use ukfsn.org for fullmeasure.co.uk and
schoolforge.org.uk and now straight-street.com also use it. It small
but reasonably comprehensive, supported and reliable. Better they
support FOSS by plowing some profits back. They offer free hosting for
community/OSS projects but you'll have to manage without sh access.
