This is to be run on a domain I own running on a Fedora 14 VM at a
data center in Singapore.

I do have wordpress running on it, not media wiki.  I can fire up a 2nd VM
if needed with mediawiki on it.

If I go with a 2nd VM model, I'd like to have a group of administrators to
manage it.

My current VM is being backed up periodically. Although, I have not
checked recently :-).

This is a personal one, not with any business.

nothing per se. I'd like gnokii to expand to work with 3G USB dongles
as well since these 3G USB dongles have a ATDT interface.
