Please note that the content below was last updated on
14 October 1996; the content of this page is being preserved as-is for posterity. The only changes made since that time were (a) to update the page markup to current standards, (b) to update internal links as hosting platforms changed or to point to
archive.org when available, and (c) to obscure email addresses located throughout these pages (except for USENET postings).
Needless to say, many of the links to external sites are no longer functional after 20+ years.Path: visi.com!winternet.com!tomkat

Yes, irc.winternet.com is still down. We have been "Jupped" by an IRCop
in reaction to a posting from Mike Horwath (see below) we could inform the
IRC admins of the situation here. We are currently working with several
IRC admins to resolve this and get irc.winternet.com back up.
Any questions about this should be directed to irc@winternet.com.
Further posting will be forth coming as we receive it. In the mean time
we suggest using irc.umn.edu, irc.ais.net, irc.cris.com, or irc-2.mit.edu
for your irc servers.
Thanks for your patience.
Thomas.

Everyone, please remove C/N lines for irc.winternet.com from now on.
This server is no longer valid, I am no longer involved with Winternet
and I have no idea when or if I will be again.
Again, remove all C/N lines.
To reach me, please send email to drechsau@geeks.org or drechsau@visi.com.
