How about starting them somewhere proper, then you don't have to move them
in due course :-). Seriously though, the plone and collective organizations
are THE place to be. Both are thriving. It would be great to have this
project visible in one of those organizations (probably plone).

+1. In fact, I'd rather move it there now then have to worry about it
later. I am +0 on leaving it at netsight without shell access. If people
can be productive there, then it's probably fine. But we'd certainly have
access to more "devops folks" if we moved it to SFU and let the AI team
control it.
