Sorry I don't have any good suggestions. Two years ago we had to move the 
hosting for openldap.org, which had been hosted for free at ISC for over a 
dozen years. We setup on Linode and they sponsored us for a year; they're very 
friendly to open source projects. But we didn't renew sponsorship after that. 
I now pay $1440/year to keep the two openldap.org servers running on their 
systems.
