Hmmm, true, if we would use Wordpress then it would probably be cheaper
and more suited for the potential traffic, as we probably wouldn't need
all the flexibility of running a server ourselves.

The GoDaddy idea doesn't sound bad either, but I haven't used zoneedit
yet, just mainly DynDNS.

Also, this came in a little later after I sent this to the mailing list,
but I got a response from duffy (IRC: mizmo) who was really interested
in the idea, but mentioned that there was already a project (called
Fedora Insight) in progress that at least had a similar goal (user-centric).

The wiki page for it is at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Insight

A mockup is here: http://fedoraproject.org/w/uploads/c/ce/FooBar.png

How to help: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Insight#How_to_help

And discussions would be on the logistics mailing list:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/logistics

Now I'm not quite sure if I want to completely go away from the idea
that I had in favor of Fedora Insight, but at least I know (and you guys
know now too) that it exists.
