That would be wonderful!
I can personally vouch for the fact that Indiana U. has the
technology and the professional support staff (not just a bunch of
grad students) to host web sites/electronic resources for large,
distributed projects. For example, we have found the Open MPI web
site and electronic resources (SVN, wikis, bug tracking, mailing
lists, etc.) to be quite reliable. The IU support staff is quite
responsive when there are problems, and open to adding in new
technologies when asked. Additionally, since IU a public
university, getting accounts/write access to the resources is
fairly easy.
I'd vote for moving mpi-forum.org (and all of its electronic
resources) to Indiana U.

Hi -- We would be happy to host the web site at IU. We host sites
for several different projects and could get the site, mailing
lists, wikis, etc up in short order (and have them all playing
nicely together).
Best,

Also, I have been questioned about the web-site. We are almost
there, and
if we can't get things up and running next week, I will most
likely get a
temporary site working, and once I figure out how to access the
official
web-site, move the information. Not ideal, but this is where we
are. I
will keep sending information via e-mail, until things are in
place.
