Hi everyone,
   IMC Mumbai/Bombay has passed internal imc-process approval :).

Welcome to the network - aanand hua!


(1) aliases

As per the minutes of the most recent meeting (10 Aug 2002):
http://lists.indymedia.org/mailman/public/imc-mumbai/2002-August/000136.html
http://lists.indymedia.org/mailman/public/imc-mumbai/2002-August/000139.html

could someone at DNS please set up the CNAME records

 bombay.indymedia.org
 mumbai.indymedia.org

to point to

 zero.bandwidthcoop.org  


scott explains a little more here:

(2) cities.inc

Following sanjay's most recent proposal (noone seems to have objected),
http://lists.indymedia.org/mailman/public/imc-mumbai/2002-August/000139.html
http://lists.indymedia.org/mailman/public/imc-mumbai/2002-August/000143.html

please add the site as 

mumbai  

and i guess it could point to bombay.indymedia.org in line with the
rest of the suggestion - to alternate the two names in practice:

> anyways, so I propose, listing ourselves as "Mumbai", having BOTH
> bombay.indymedia.org and mumbai.indymedia.org as our URL aliases and using
> the words Bombay and Mumbai interchangeably through the site (for eg.
> perhaps we can have "Bombay Independent Media Center" show up on the main

[This sounds like a lot of good sense. Simply let/encourage people to
use the two names interchangeably.]
