The Featured IP is actually located at:

http://www.chebucto.ns.ca/Policy/messages/ip/docs-html/featured.html

It's generally accesed and profiled from the CCN Welcome Page (which is
seen by all CCN members when they dialup or telnet to the CCN) and from
other locations such as the CCN IP Support Page:

	http://www.chebucto.ns.ca/Services/IPsupport/index.html

It changes ever month, and I'd be delighted to feature Solar Nova Scotia
in the rotation. Unfortunately I can't do it before November since the
September and October slots are already booked. Let me know if this is
O.K. and I'll put you into the rotation. All it entails is writing (in
HTML) a short intro to the group as per the above page. We've found that
many Featured IPs experience a doubling or tripling of URL hits during the
month they are in the rotation, so it is a really effective vehicle for
profiling groups to the local constituency.

Cheers!

Chris
