I am in the process (a year long process at this rate) of moving the Riverbank 
website to a different ISP. rbc.co.uk is a typical restricted LAMPhp system. 
rbc.com is a BSD virtual server where I will (eventually) run a BAMPy system.

The mailing list will be the next thing that moves. As it's a virtual server 
there is the flexibility of running almost anything on it - so it's available 
as a resource if needed.
