   What's the story about the FSF-I web site and mailing lists?
   Down for close to a week now?

The DOT lines to the building where the primary nameserver is housed
are completely destroyed and are being repaired now. Hopefully,
everything will be OK today evening or tomorow.

gnu.org.in becomes incommunicado to the outside world due to the non
resolution of the domain since the domain server is out of link
from the rest of the world.

NCST, the Indian Domain Registrars don't allow us to use the DNS
outside India, if not we would have used our own name server in the
UK which is always up and running.  We are forced to use the name
servers in India and obviously we have to face this problem quite
often.
