Central America is on the net.
Our project, Proyecto Huracan, carried out by the Secretaria General del
Consejo Superior Universitario Centroamericano ("secretariat general of the
higher council of Central American [state] universities"), financed by the
United Nations Development Programme and the Canadian Agency for
International Development, provides e-mail and news to currently 200 users
in Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. Our
system is a registered Internet node (we do uucp with Uunet) connected to
the regional X.25 data network, so users connect to us thorugh the data
network (no long-distance calls involved here).
Most of our users do not read the news at the moment; this is changing. The
mail and news interface is in Spanish.
