The document you refer to is sadly outdated and much of the information contained in it no longer applies. Undernet is currently updating and revising all the information on it's websites. The gateway services you speak of are a short lived thing of the past, and there are no immediate plans to have them again. I'm sorry for the misinformation on the website and I thank you for your email. We plan on having all new or updated documents on the Undernet web pages very shortly.

Forwarded from "Jurgen_Kessler" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, please redirect replies to that address.Hallo, here is my question: in the IRC Undernet Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) (Part 2 of 2) from Mandar M. Mirashi, I found these information: 3-8) Can I move my channel to the Undernet? What are the advantages of doing so? How do I register a channel? You're welcome to start up your favourite channel on the Undernet as well. Consider the many advantages. Much better facilities for chatting, without the annoyingly frequent netsplits; much lesser lag (check with /ping #channelname for yourself :); protection against netsplit op riders who try to disrupt channels; no channel desynchs; amongst the other advantages listed earlier. We may even be able to set up a gateway service between the same channels on both nets, if all channel members are willing. (email [EMAIL PROTECTED], if you wish to do this; or email [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED]). Undernet operators are always willing to help you in this endeavour, so don't hesitate to ask us. Unfortunately this is not very actual so I want to know if this is still possible because I'm interested in linking two or more channels on different nets to create a bigger community. Another interesting gateway service I would like to get information about is described here: 3-9) Can I communicate with someone on the EFnet once I'm on the Undernet? (or vice-versa) Occasionally, a few gateway services can be found on the Undernet which allow you to communicate to someone not on the same net, or which link channels. These include 'ul' - programmed by Tonto ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), || - programmed by Wildthang (dvmitche@mailhost. ecn.uoknor.edu), Orac - programmed by Ensor ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), and miscellaneous others (including some by Run). Look around if any of these is present, and if so, try /msg servicename help. I did not find any of these services. Thank you for your help. Regards SCHNUPS
