Start publishing a list of public homeservers

• matrix.org (duh)
• we.ho.st
• disroot.org

If you want to advertise public HS hosting, please add a comment here and we'll get you added to an official list somewhere on matrix.org!

important thing to remember with public homeservers: where is HS hosted and what promises "owner" gives, if any. or how do you even measure quality of public HS? if someone just got cheap VPS from somewhere, wants to be cool admin... and HS gets lots of accounts and one day owner or his parents can't or don't want to pay for or maintain it anymore... well, you get the idea.

A table that indicates information about each server's reliability, updates, security, etc., could be modelled after: https://xmpp.net/directory.php or http://www.jabberes.org/servers/ or https://list.jabber.at/

I have made a first attempt at a public server list for Matrix: https://www.hello-matrix.net/public_servers.php

I have added the servers above to which I could actually connect. Let me know if you want to use this or get added to it (or want to add details to your server's listing).

this isn't really a spec issue. Closing in favour of matrix-org/matrix.org#95
