Linux VPS for hosting, especially in the short term. Linode for global presence, Networkpresence for Au. That's going to depend on our developer base though. May be worth investing in a couple and planning HA and growth from the start.
RoR works best on Linux. Don't mind what flavour we use, but I do prefer Ubuntu for its sane package management and regular release schedule.
I want to get performance metrics in early. This is one that did bite AO3 a bit when they hit load issues.
A developer's wiki up ASAP. Somewhere for note taking and sharing of knowledge, ideas, progress and what broke.

I'm happy to finance stuff too.
