As a temporary measure, I've put up http://forum.peoplecards.ca and I'm  
manually cross-posting to opencobol.org.

It WILL be temporary, as I'm fighting off about 40 spambots everyday and  
it gets old really fast.  Plus, it's a phpBB one-click easy install on an  
entry level Dreamhost account.  It is on a shared server and other forums  
are experiencing spambots attacks which effects performance of the  
forum.peoplecards.ca site.  It can be slow sometimes, unacceptably slow  
other times, and I can't really do much about it.  Dreamhost does their  
best, but it's an up hill battle and for $8 a month customers, probably  
doesn't sit at the top of their work queues.

I know you won't be able to respond directly on the main forum yet, but  
I'm going to make a post to opencobol.org about a move to a hosted forum  
solution so we can get on with the real discussion and leave the robot  
fighting to paid professionals.  Some of the for-fee hosted solutions are  
heavy users of open source software and friendly to open source projects,  
providing service for less-fee or for free.

Cheers,
Brian
