Wow, jcwren. This is an amazingly generous offer. Thank you!

I would like to second coreolyn's suggestion of using a separate box for the connection/firewall. OpenBSD is a good suggestion - stable and very secure right out of the box. You might also want to consider making the hosting machine run OpenBSD, for the same reasons.

As for names, I would suggest perlmonk.org (without the "s" at the end), which would make sense if you have individual subdomains (zzamboni.perlmonk.org), or perlmonastery.org. I would also second some of the previous suggestions:
