myself could host the hub. Technically it does not appear difficult.
What I am having problems with is that this does not mitigate for any
personal problems (work, life, new vocations lol. etc) and it does not offer
any form of contingency in case of any issues.
I am therefore looking at a fully transparent (technically, operationally
and financially) solution but also whilst at it taking the opportunity to
create a broader service and include work by such archivists such as
Richard.
Please keep the comments flowing.

I agree with grill, realafrica and others that ideally it would be great if
someone was to step up to the plate and provide a "free"
solution to the other members. That's easy for me to suggest as I have
neither the technical or financial means to offer this, but in the meantime
I would be happy to chip in for a subscription to the hub for as long as it
takes.
