Discounts for FOSS projects
Just wondering does Linode offer any discounts for FOSS projects hosted in Linode? I've got a FOSS project (a Servlet container) hosted currently under Linode. It serves samples of servlet web applications and it's documentation running in Linode. I'd like to get the servlet container we have to serve applications like Jira, Confluence, Fisheye etc. backed by most probably mysql. But I don't think my current plan can allow that memory and cpu wise. Just wondering if I could maybe get a Linode1024 plan for the price of Linode512 or something like that.
Also does Linode offers discount for charity web sites? I've got a few charities community interested to host their websites and was thinking about Linode due to it's effectiveness and am wondering if we could get any discounts off Linode.
Thanks in advance folks
Cheers

Are the charities officially 503© organizations? I don't know about Linode, but I've definitely seen other web hosts offer special deals for actual non-profits.
Tim, will deinitely give marketing at linode a go.
Yaz,
They are for a local church and a public primary schools, not sure about the later but the former is definitely registered under charity organisation. Have you got any recommendations Yaz?
