[sakai2-tcc] code review process/software

[Neal Caidin]

I am the contact for our hosting provider Wush.net . It seems like Wush might also be able to help us with this too. I imagine I would be a logical contact for Atlassian. Probably good to have at least two backups for every service. Not good to have a single point of failure.

I remember something about a hosting provider that Apereo Ja-Sig folks thought were full of awesomeness that can host these kinds of systems too. I've been happy with Wush, but if Infrastructure decides to consolidate providers, then the timing/cost considerations should tie in with that (provided there is a reaonable timeline?).

Possibly the Atlassian hold-up is because it is a free service so harder to get their attention (just a guess)?
