       The Mare Serenitatis Circumlunar Corporate Republic (Republic
       for short) is part of the circumlunar.space universe, whose main
       colonies are this server, the Mare Tranquillitatis People's
       Circumlunar Zaibatsu (Zaibatsu), and the Mare Crisium Soviet
       Socialist Regency (Soviet), but including several smaller outposts.
       
   DIR Greater Circumlunar.space Universe
       
       The Republic is a public BSD Unix shell server that offers gopher
       and static web hosting, as well as shell accounts to those who ask,
       at no cost. Emphasis is on minimal and text-based utilities and
       protocols, in particular gopher. It is completely non-commercial
       and offers a text-based haven for those frustrated by the corporate
       takeover, bloat and ever-present surveillance of the modern web.
       
       Users get a shell login and 500MB of space with which to host
       a gopherspace or webspace, and can participate in the wider
       circumlunar community via a shared, text-based BBS, inter-server
       email, and a private IRC network.
       
       The Republic runs FreeBSD and is maintained by mieum and slugmax.
       They can be reached via Internet email at mieum@tilde.team
       or slugmax@sdf.org. For users on the circumlunar outposts,
       or most other pubnixes, you can send to those users directly
       @republic.circumlunar.space.
