+1) Europe should always be a separate net from the other parts of
+ (what was formerly known as) "EFNet". For example; Netherlands
+ with leafs and Sweden/Finland (with leafs) should always be
+ connected to eachother. There are a few times when that wont work
+ though... NORDUnet might have fuckups from time to time and in
+ those few cases we have to use more then one link to USA.
+
+2) Europe "should" be connected this way;
+
+ * irc.nada.kth.se is the primary HUB for northern Europe as well
+ as some southern European servers (.at). irc.nada.kth.se is
+ also the primary European HUB for connections to US.
+ * warszawa.irc.pl is the primary .pl HUB, primary uplink for .pl
+ is .se with .fi/.at as secondary
+ (.pl is almost never connected to "EFNet" right now)
+ * ircd.funet.fi is the primary .fi HUB and irc.cs.hut.fi is the
+ backup.
+ * irc.pvv.unit.no is the primary .no HUB and irc.ifi.uio.no is
+ the backup, primary uplink for .no is .se with .fi as secondary.
+ * irc.ru is the primary .ru HUB, primary uplink is .fi with .se as
+ secondary.
+ * irc.isnet.is's primary uplink is .fi, irc.ludd.luth.se is secondary
+ * sunsite.auc.dk's primary uplink is irc.nada.kth.se
+ * irc.ccii.unipi.it is the primary HUB for Italy, primary uplink is
+ .se with .nl/.uk as secondary.
+ * irc.felk.cvut.cz is the primary .cz HUB, primary uplink is .se.
+ * irc.sanet.sk's primary uplink is .cz.
+
+ * irc.nijnerode.nl is the primary HUB for sourthern Europe and .uk.
+ Primary uplink is irc.ludd.luth.se(irc.nada.kth.se) with .fi as
+ secondary
+ * irc.univ-lyon1.fr is the primary .fr HUB and
+ sil.polytechnique.fr is the backup. primary uplink for .fr is
+ irc.ludd.luth.se and secondary uplink for .fr is irc.cerf.net.
+ * stork.doc.ic.ac.uk is the primary .uk HUB and serv.eng.abdn.ac.uk
+ is the backup. Primary uplink is .nl with .se/.fi as secondary.
+ (.uk also has a .net server, as well as a netcom.net.uk server which
+ uses a bit different uplinks--the rest of the .uk servers are
+ connected to those on occasions as well)
+ * irc.belnet.be is the primary .be HUB, primary uplink for .be is
+ .uk with .fr/.nl as secondary.
+ * irc.wu-wien.ac.at is the primary .at HUB, primary uplink for
+ .at is .fr with .se as secondary.
+ * irc.uni-paderborn.de is the primary .de HUB, primary uplink for
+ .de is .nl with .fi as secondary.
+ (.de isn't often connected, as they have sloooow links)
+ * irc.arnes.si's primary uplink is .nl, secondary uplink is .se.
+
+ * The primary link for Europe to USA is; .se - USA
+ backups are; .fi/.nl - USA
+ (USA can be one of the following; cs-pub.bu.edu, ircd.stealth.net
+ eff.org, bazooka.rutgers.edu or irc.cerf.net. irc.cerf.net
+ is the prefered one nowadays with ircd.stealth.net as secondary)
+
+3) The ASCII map of all this, to make things "easier to comprehend".
