www.gnuplot.info domain (was: Re: 4.2.6 released)

[Philipp K. J. <ja...@ie...>]

On this matter (since I was recently very confused
about this):

The domain at www.gnuplot.info points to a mirror
of the gnuplot main site at gnuplot.sourceforge.net.

This mirror is currently hosted by Virginia Tech and
administered by Clark Gaylord (who also owns the
gnuplot.info domain). Clark assures me that the
mirror is refreshed once a day.

Clark suggests that Virginia Tech provides better
internet connectivity than sourceforge, hence the
mirror. (I am in no position to judge the accuracy
of this statement.)

Personally, I have been confused that gnuplot.info
is a mirror - I always thought it was a mere alias for
the main site. 

(If nobody objects, I will put a note explaining the 
relationship between the two sites into the 
documentation page on the gnuplot website.)

Best,

		Ph.
