Hi!

To increase the already unbearable internet hype, the german
foreign affairs ministry is now somewhat on-line at

www.auswaertiges-amt.government.de

Check the whois record at whois-host whois.nic.de to find out
who is guilty of this incredible stupid domain name registration.

German federal ministries should use bund.de, which is still
available. They were stupid enough to encode their preferrence for a
soon-to-be obsolete mail protocol into their e-mails: there
is a bund400.de domain...

I can't believe them being so net-unaware !

                So short, PI
