It sounds like a cool project. Specially the part about creating some
control-panel for switching Cake-cores... and of-course included
donations.

But I wonder if the market is there for such a hosting service.
Looking at Rails (I have a feeling you are), the reason you have lots
and lots of available specialized hosting is that compared to Cake,
Rails is a pain to set up. There is very little time and effort to be
gained from choosing a Cake-host. Such a host would then compete with
all the ordinary php-hosts unless they could come up with a bunch of
cool extra feature besides the Cake core to have a clear edge. Just my
quick thoughts.

To prevent pro-Rails spam: I know, I know. It has become a lot (no A
LOT) simpler to deploy Rails recently and it will probably keep
getting better. But looking at the past few years Rails has more or
less required special hosting and thus a lot of companies began
offering such services.
