Yes, this server delinked quite some time ago. From what i recall, the
university that was housing it wanted to cut back on non-educational
bandwidth usages :-) [bloody uni's hehehe typical]

Anyway.... there was a firstlink.nsw.au.dal.net that was testlink'd a bit
ago, but from what i've heard, they decided not to go with dalnet as it
stands atm (possibly waiting for more bandwidth and/or accounts to cover
costs).

Remember, aussie's pay per Mb for bwidth here :/ Tis why not many servers
linked to major networks [exception of telstra (who are a major backbone
in australia, and hence can afford to link to EFnet/IRCnet :-)]
