Correct, no guarantee of backups on pony.  There may be backups, but no
guarantee.  However, with a DVCS, every developer has a complete copy of
the repo!  So, a potentially-crashy host is perfectly fine.

We have an IP allocated from Speakeasy that can be NATted to Pony, and
that will probably happen "RSN".

Blah, hosted services.  Anybody feel like setting up a virtual server
and hosting code.noisebridge.net?  We're happy to CNAME subdomains of
noisebridge.net for projects to machines maintained by noisebridge
members.  (We don't want to centralize additional services on
m1.noisebridge.net which hosts the wiki and Mailman; defense in depth is
better in case of compromise.)
