Hi everyone!!

We've added the Linux Documentation Project to our list of mirrored
sites. Please do check it out - http://www.kernel.org.in/LDP/

GNOOME should be here next...

cheers,
Abhas.

>Hi Everyone...

>We are pround to announce a mirror site right here in India - http://www.kernel.org.in.
>Its officially registerd as a kernel.org mirror - check out
>http://www.kernel.org/mirrors/
>
>Anyway, at Kernel.Org.In, our idea is to have a complete GNU/Linux software
>mirror right here in India. As of now, we the kernel.org and gnu.org FTP
>sites mirrored daily. Shortly, LDP should be here as well. Our aim is to
>finally have the apache and samba projects, GNOME and KDE sites, ibiblio archives
>and rpmfind.net mirrored locally. In addition to these *big* sites, we also
>plan to mirror smaller repositories such as ReiserFS.
>
>The important thing is to enable more involved testing and development by
>Indian developers since they will have faster downloads to the stuff they
>want to work upon.
>
>Please visit http://www.kernel.org.in for more information. HTTP access to
>the archives is through http://www.kernel.org.in/mirrors/ and FTP access is
>through ftp://ftp.kernel.org.in . If you have any suggestions or comments
>on something you like or don't like - please write in to
>mirrors@kernel.org.in.
>
>Do test out the site fully... and tell us how you find the speed...

>cheers,
