[Rhodes22-list] The Link to Nabble IS broken

[Tom Van Heule]

Mike, et all,
I have a web server, our own hardware, in a  Chicago data center.
If you'd need I can , and happy to, do all the hosting. (I do not run an
email server)
I much prefer a micro service design, but that's a huge project to retain
all the history....

Hope you have a safe and fun weekend.
