I Hope,in India,we cant afford to open more than 1 session at any point of
time ;) It is badwidth and not bandwidth here.

    Anyway,why cant we think about having CPAN,mirrors of linux-docs.,and
running a dedicated server for the LPI et all ????
    mirrors of mysql might also be useful.singapore ftp site is dead slow
for that.

As Atul said,we can share these projects with different ILUGs [hope there
wont be any politics,then ;)
