If it's not an "infrastructure server" (web/mail/etc) it doesn't really
matter where it is hosted, IMHO - as long as there are on-site techs to
help you if things go bad. (If it's web etc, we need to look at getting
good distribution etc) So no objectinos from me. 
It could actually be a point not to "over-stress" the places where we
can expect further offers for hosting servers that are more critical.
From that perspective, OSL seems a very good choice.

(Hey, I can host it here if I get to play with it for personal stuff
instaed of pg stuff :-P)
