Hi. I received this message from Gopi Garge in India giving an update
on networking activities there. He gave me permission to forward this to
the list (as an update to the presentation I gave in November).

> Hello Mark,
> 
> 	A quick update on what's happening here -
> 
> 	The 64 Kbps digital line to Alternet is now stabilised and
> 	we are able to get some respectable thruputs !
> 
> 	We are now running a Nameserver for the "in" domain at
> 	Bombay and mail from the rest of the world directly
> 	smtps into the machine at Bombay and is distributed via
> 	UUCP due to the low speed internal lines.
> 
> 	Our X400 international connectivity is tested and operational.
> 	We have two WEPs in Europe and one in the US. Univ London
> 	Comp Centre is the primary for Europe and the secondary is
> 	SWITCH in Switzerland. In the US, we are testing with the
> 	Univ of Wisconsin. Once we're through  with that, I plan to
> 	talk to you about the SPRINT X400 testing. That shd be well into
> 	early next month.
> 
> 	Our X500 services are picking up. Our country wide 
> 	DSA availability has been good. As for international 
> 	Queries, we did register about 350 queries to the master DSA
> 	, but reachability has had been a problem. So I am going to ask
> 	the PARADISE project guys to replicate one level below "in" in the
> 	DIT, which will enable queries to be directly shot at the respective
> 	'regional' DSAs.  I have Paul Barker from UCL here for a fortnight
> 	to help me out in these issues.

> That's for now, mark. It's been busy going ever since I got home. Of course,
> the first thing I did when I got back is to tidy up my shack, give it a good
> shape and call it a 'NOC' ... :). I'll try to send you a picture, if I
