I have no poblem integrating it with existing plug site. If someone else
can take care of the DNS and can decide on a sub-domain for it to reside -
I can adjust the site/Apache for this -no problem. Eventually - we could
transfer it to another server - but it's running PHP & MySQL and I think
that our host doesn't want them for security concerns.
