Re: IITK Linux mirror

Raju,

how about doing the same at IIT-Delhi ?
could you find out from the CS dep there
or talk to linux-delhi friends who may be at IITD ?

this below is a great idea and the argument
should be used more often to reduce rates
for bandwidth for networks internal to india.
currently the internal bandwidth is charged
at the same rate as that of international links,
which is truly exhorbitant and this is greatly
impeding the growth of the internet in India.
