Forum OpenACS Q&A: How about a page on openacs.org with this info on it?

May I suggest that there be a page on openacs.org with a list of all the companies offering OpenACS hosting, possibly with some basic info (i.e. price per month or price range) and when you click on the names you get a page offering the details (or a link to a page on the company's website offering details)? Perhaps with a comments section so people could offer testimonials?

It really is silly to continually have people asking and answering about this given how important these services are--the info should just be there, accessible from a link on the front page. It would be nice too if the companies offering the services could edit their own entries in the database in case their price changes or they want to offer a sale, etc.

And, the user should be able to sort it by price, by bandwidth, etc--the usual database-backed website stuff.

Something like this, with more info (I hope the formatting works):

Company Space Bandwidth Monthly Setup Special Offers
foo.org 100 Meg 10 gig/mo. $50 $100 FREE SETUP THRU 6/30
bar.org 100 Meg 10 gig/mo. $75 $50 ONE MONTH FREE!
bazz.org 120 Meg 13 gig/mo. $85 $60

Am I right or am I right? 😊
