[joomla] urgent plea from gigCalendar.net

The gigCalendar website is in a crisis due to popularity. I 
know...scratching my head, too!

You may have noticed that gigcalendar.net has been down ever since the 
Joomla! Extensions Directory came alive. (http://extensions.joomla.org)

I am being pushed to move gigcalendar.net to a new IP on a new server 
ASAP. Even though the site is down, the domain is receiving lots of 
traffic...to the point that it is effecting the server I'm on. Not a 
good thing for the kind folks that are hosting the site right now.

Does anyone have access to a server that can host this site? According 
to our host we have constantly been receiving over 250 simultaneous page 
loads. This is too much of a load for a shared server. I'd be happy to 
put google ads on the site and give all proceeds to the person hosting 
the site to help pay for it...but if traffic drops off there may not be 
much revenue from that.


Anyway- gigcalendar.net needs help. If you think that you could help, 
let me know. Otherwise, I think that we'll have to live without the 
website for a while.

Thanks-
Graham
