DeNIC: New DENIC name servers are showing effect
After inauguration of the new servers - among other places one in Tokio
and two in the USA - the response times for DE domains were decreased
dramatically. User in Asia, North America and from the Pacific area are
gaining most. This was shown by measurements of the Japanese domain
register authority JPRS and the DENIC. Recently Internet users from Japan,
Corea, China or Australia had to wait 300 milli seconds avaragely, this
values were more than halved now. Most drastically this decrease shows
effect in Japan where the times were cut from 270 to less than 5 milli
seconds. Requests from the USA for DE domains are also answered faster
now by the both new servers at the American east and west coast. The
response times were reduced from about 170 to 70 milli seconds.

Game: New settings for Bots Quake2-Mods
It's happend to be that the new "Battle of the Sexes" mod, which is at the Amiga
Quake2 site downloadable is incompatible if run with the default settings. At the Amiga Quake2 site I made a new QuakeII.info (Bots.info) downloadable which contains slightly modificated settings and works with Bots also.
The not yet released "Blastchamber" mod
and several other modules not yet released, might have this problem.
So better use the new icon file.
