	We are very grateful to thats for it. But still, I don't
understand the need for irc.linux-india.org's http port point to AUNET. I
mean there is already aunet.org then why irc.linux-india.org? It would
have had some meaning if both were mirrors with actual physical locations
being different. But as u say they are on the same machine.
	 I simply imply that is there a need to mix up the domain names
when it can be done  without. I just typed the irc.linux-india.org in the
browser (don't ask me why) looking if such a site existed, of course
thinking that it must be a child of linux-india and reach aunet.org! And I
personally did not like the idea that a site under linux-india domain
mirror something completely out of touch with linux. (May be due the bond
I  have grown with LI and linux)

	I did not intend to offend anyone. I voiced what I felt was an
error and got a reply which scolded me for typing an address in my
browser. 
	Anyway I do not want to take this topic far on LI. If u wish to
flame, flame me in person and I promise they will not go in my /dev/null

Thats: 
	Sorry if u were offended. I did not wish so. I appreciate your
bond with AU and LI but still!
	Bye..
