Looks like the wiki is back :-)

I am apprehensive about the current hosts' stability, in view of the recent outage, though. For the time being, I took a more recent backup.

Hmm-

Right now Godaddy has on sale a basic hosting package for $4.24/month (36 month commitment) which includes Mediawiki 1.19.2 .

While Godaddy can be bothersome I have found their customer service people to be very helpful.

Personaly I am against Godaddy because of their history of domain hijacking.

When I first glanced at this post I first read it as - .... Godaddy has on sale a basic hostage package for ...

In light of the other reply, I now wonder how much more accurate my first reading was.

BTW This is the first I've heard of any issues with Godaddy, but then being in Australia I don't see much about them.
