Your VPS, your call. :)

Same here, so it might be great if a couple of other people would ask
for an access (id_rsa.pub) via git too; so they can put things we forget
(or don't have the time to add) in the wiki.

Depending on the availability of the virtual-server manager of the
French association I mentionned before, I might already have (I've asked
a few days ago, but they have much to do apparently) a working VPS at
this point... So... Wait and see...

Same idea here yes. Plus a link to a (list of the?) multi-dingus, if
available.

I was thinking about using a domain under a "first level TLD" such as
mdwn.tk. The thing being : We (or you) HAVE to set up a working wiki
with some (even minimal) content before we ask for the domain, or it
will be taken down in minutes (their policy is quite restrictive about
non-resolving websites and inactivity). What do the others on the list
think?
