What a relief, I hate beef Yes my bandwidth terminates in south florida, so it might not be really useful for Uganda, but I am willing to provide more tangible support like hardware, knowledge and ofcourse time and effort to help people as much as possibel

I did not respond to your email. I responded to Simon's. (and yes, i think emails that consist out of just a URL are a bit silly, as it forces everyone to click the link and read the whole page, a little introduction to a URL is always a good idea) regarding *your* email, I think setting up a repo is a brilliant idea. I will have a server in a ugandan datacentre available by the end of july. If only we could move your bandwith to that server, that would be lovely. (but i guess your bandwith terminates somewhere in florida, if i am not mistaking) rgds, Reinier Battenberg Director Mountbatten Ltd. +256 782 801 749 www.mountbatten.net On Thursday 19 June 2008 01:06:21 Sanga M.
