Hi,

I just discovered that ethereal is mirrored at gd.tuwien.ac.at.,
so I thinking about shuting down my mirror at boehm.org for 
the following reasons:

* boehm.org has only a 32kByte/s line
* gd.tuwien is closer to the VIX (main austrian eXchange Point)
    -> yes boehm.org is in austria :)
* gd has a faster connection to the VIX (I guess it's a 155 Mbit FDDI link or faster)
* all Providers at the VIX (Austrians, Germans and Int. )
  are peering with the AS of the gd.tuwien server

BTW: the Vienna Internet eXchange is the main Exchange Point for
     all austrian ISPs (there are about 50 Peers)
     see http://www.vix.at

Please remove the link for my mirror from the Ethereal hompage
as well as from the freshmeat mirror list.

I will certainly turn on my mirror again if it is needed again. 

Hannes
