[Coder-Com] Using the gateway service

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

Hi,

The document you are referring to is many years old and is more or less
used as a historical ref although some info may pertain to the undernet
of today.  We suggest you go to www.undernet.org and the links it
contains for current info about undernet.org.

Hi,
The document you refer to is sadly outdated and much of the information 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.

Actually most of the information on Undernet's web pages are outdated and 
are currently being updated, and revised. We are also working on new 
documents and faqs to better serve the Undernet and IRC communities.
