  A temporary solution can be to ask tuxfamily.org to host AFFS:
  we won't have to pay anything (network, machine, host) and
  we could begin to work.

  Tuxfamily hosts any kind of Free Software project, promotion
  included. I have asked them and AFFS seems to have all conditions 
  to be hosted on it. We just have to be non-commercial (but asking 
  membership fees is ok).

  We can have (I just cite their page):
  - an web administration panel for services
  - host of our own domain
  - Mysql base, CGI, PHP3&4, SSI
  - an e-mail address@hidden (POP3/IMAP)
  - several websites
  - our own 404 page
  - statistic (webalizer)
  - http://www.affs.org.uk  (if we have bought affs.org.uk)
  - ftp login for each website
  - anonymous public ftp as 
       ftp://ftp.tuxfamily.org/public/ourproject 
      (one more access is created for its administration) 
  - several  CVS Repository (with multiuser managment via web),
anonymous
     access and CvsWeb 
  - unlimited mailling list for each domain we own
  - unlimited pop3 logins 
  - unlimited mail forwards
  - unlimited mail alias
  - kind of webmail access for all hosted logins  
  - dns
  - subdomains managed by "DynDns like" system
  - search engine for our website + personalized templates 
    for answer

  The only "pb" of this solution is that all menus are in French.
  Btw, I can write a "How to use tuxfamily for English people"
  if we adopt this solution.

  Great :o)

  About QinetiQ, I have to look at your site.
  The only thing I read about them is a documentation I got 
  on a job event.
