Demo site details:
First of all, these were just set up so reya276 could get started
playing with them.  They are by no means meant to be official,
semi-official, permanent, semi-permanent, secure, available, or
useful.  If you set up an account, you _will_ lose it later.
Basically think of them as pre-alpha.  They're default, no branding,
nothing.  At this point they're only a couple of hours old.

That being said, i think there is some value in getting familiar with
the tools while we work on the hosting part.

ubuntu-fl1.homelinux.org - a default joomla installation.
ubuntu-fl2.homelinux.org - a default drupal installation.

I think we want to keep a small team (2-3) of content managers.
Reya276 has volunteered, so if anyone else is intrested, please let me
know.
