9 As you may already know, Egypt cut nearly all international Internet
10 access last night. However, phone lines still work. SRN would like to
11 encourage someone who doesn't care about his own anonymity to run pppd
12 on a phone line, as a dialup AnoNet ISP for Egyptians who can't access
13 AnoNet by the regular methods. All you need is a Unix (GNU/Linux,
14 *BSD, etc. - anything that can run pppd) computer with a fax/modem and
15 an available telephone line (incoming calls only). If you can help,
16 please find SRN on IRC (no technical knowledge necessary).

118
119 The activity level on #anonet got a bit too high (especially with all the bots), so some new channels have been added. Here are the currently known channels:
120
121 =over
122
123 =item #anonet (chat/anonet)
124
125 This is the main channel for AnoNet-related discussion. All AnoNet2 IRC servers carry this channel.
126
127 =item #talk (chat/talk)
128
129 This is a new channel for general talk, and at least for now it is the home of most of our bots. Only sevil and SRN IRC servers carry this channel.
130
131 =item #1984 (chat/1984)
132
133 This is a channel that BrainBox requested. Some SRN IRC servers carry it.

135 =back
136
137 Creating a new channel is done the traditional way (just /join it),
138 but linking the channel through the udpmsg3 cloud requires a little
139 bit of configuration for all current udpmsg3 clients. SRN is happy to
140 reconfigure his stuff for any new channel.
