Jugal-da,
 
It is a positive development. So many new members have joined now and discussions have imporved with fresh blood/views.
C-da, it is intriguing about the person you mention using a psuedonym. Why not carry out another email address check on that individual and take action .

My feelings likewise.


You and I and so many of us here, often get into passionate debates. There are times we even lose it and get angry. But still there is a common bond of caring and mutual respect as fellow Oxomiyas, who feel deeply about Assam's welfare.

But would you know that one of us, from right here in the USA, has attempted to sabotage and destroy this forum of ours? This person has written under a pseudonym, to the University, against Jugal and against Assam Net, characterizing it as harboring a 'terrorist cell' or some garbage akin to that.

What do Netters think of that? What should we say to this despicable character, who used to post venom filled and extremist views right here ? He might still be lurking among us, like the coward he is, under his own name; even though we have not seen the pseudonym  he used to post under in recent months.

c-da

Hi Jugal,
 
Congratulations to all of you including Saurav, Dipu, Babul and others who have made Assam net a lively place for spirited discussions.
 
We can consider this a milestone, where we have a free and cordial exchange of ideas. Keep up the great work.

Hello everyone,

Assamnet will move some time soon to a new home. The new home will be
[EMAIL PROTECTED].

Assamnet was founded in 1985 at the University of Pennsylvania. It has
been hosted at the University of Colorado from 1991. Luitporia-net was
started at the University of Missouri in 1990 by Dr. Dipankar Medhi.
Assamnet and Luitporianet became one in 1998. Since then it has been
hosted at the University of Colorado. We thank the University of
Pennsylvania, the University of Missouri and the University of Colorado
for having given us this opportunity to bring together the Assamese
diaspora from around the world.

The objective of Assamnet is to bring together people with interest in
all aspects of Assam, be it social, cultural, religious, educational,
political or anything at all, so that written discussions and debates
can take place without  fear and censor! ship of any kind. In Assam
itself, it is very difficult openly to discuss many issues of vital
concern to Assam.

However, we have had issues in Assamnet in the past. Although this is
normal when a few hundred people constantly participate in spirited
discussions, we must exercise caution so that discussions and debates
can take place in a manner wherein widest participation is possible.
For example, a few years ago several people were removed from the list
for using unacceptable sexual language during discussions and debates.
In addition, Assamnet will not allow anyone to recruit people for
violent activities of any kind. However, peaceful and respectful
discussion of any topic is welcome.

We will send out an email when we make this transition to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]. We are finishing up the details of the move and it
will take place soon. Once that happens, instead of sending email to
assam@pikespeak.uccs.edu, you will send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]. It
will be a new and befitting place to Assamnet after almost 15 years at
the University of Colorado.

Thank you!

Jugal Kalita (Colorado), Saurav Pathak (Pennsylvania) and Babul Gogoi
(Delhi)
Assamnet administrators
