Hi CSSC Committee,

I'd like to apologise for any misunderstanding regarding your hosting.

Your webserver was previously a virtual machine called Custardrum, which I 
believe was set up by Ash "spook" Wiren. The VM still exists, but was 
disabled sometime last year.

Ash is not in a position of authority in UCC, and has in fact not been a 
member since 2010.

You also have a shell account "cssc". The webpage of this account is 
http://cssc.ucc.asn.au. This appears to have been a webcam page.

If you do wish to use UCC for hosting, we are happy to give you a new VM 
with a GNU/Linux operating system installed, and you can give access to 
trusted people from your club. We can point cssc.asn.au at the VM.

UCC members would not be given access, and we would not interfere with the 
running of the VM unless it became a security issue, was found to have 
breached UWA Computer Usage guidelines, or you decided not to pay the 
hosting fee.

The cost of $25 per year is the same price as a non-student membership.
UCC doesn't have an SLA.

If you don't want to use us for hosting, that's fine.
I just thought I should clarify these things.

All the best,

Sam Moore
UCC Vice President 2013
