[Dns] Confused about Darwin Indy

[bertagaz]

Hi,

This can be explain by a request we received from Mike Lambe you can
found in our list archive here:

http://lists.indymedia.org/pipermail/dns/2005-June/0627-1k.html

It only mention that a new hosting solution has been found, but now it looks to me
like a manipulation to get the site in mike's hand...

I've made the requested change without knowing there were such a
conflict in the DIM collective. I guess this is mainly my fault, i
should have verified before doing that, I'll remember that next time.

Reading DIM lists archives and talking about that on irc with more "aware" ppl, it appears the
best was to undo the changes and mail process about that, then wait for
the process group to decide what to do.

Now the change is done, darwin point to its old page on
pert.indymedia.org.

Please forgive my mistake and keep us aware of what was decided about
that.

Greetz

Bert.
