I can't promise anything as I don't believe everything has been finalized, but I'll say that as things currently stand, there is a very good chance that the Board will indeed be around in 100 hours.

Oh, come on! We need details about how The 100 Hour Board stuck around! I can imagine that it would make a great motivational picture book! A modern version of "The Little Engine that Could!"

We found someone who is willing to host the Board for us. I'm not entirely sure at this point whether the arrangement is intended to be a public and formal one or not. That is, there are two possibilities. They could be officially sponsoring us, meaning we'd link to them and say nice things about them, but they might potentially take flak for any of our missteps. Or they could just surreptitiously host the server for us along with their other stuff, let us do our own thing, and make no guarantee that they'll fight for us if we make a mess. We've had both kinds of relationships in the past, and as I haven't been too involved in the discussions this time, I'm not sure exactly what the situation is here.

So, I'm sorry I can't give more details. The high level overview is that a full-time staff member (who is a fan of the Board) saw our notice, contacted us, and offered to give us a place to live. We gratefully accepted, and things seem to be working out so far.

Boring, I know. But that's all I can give you right now.
