Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor Ayar, who writes:<\/p>\n

According to many Greek news sources, the workers of ERT will go back to\u00a0work tomorrow to restart ERT and take over from NERIT, even though there\u00a0is no explicit permission from the government for them to do so!<\/p>\n

This was a decision taken today by the ERT workers trade union\u00a0“POSPERT”, who asked the workers to go back to work and start\u00a0broadcasting from ERT HQ. (Here is the original decision published on\u00a0their website translated from Greek by Google<\/a>).<\/p>\n

An interesting observation: The domain “ert.gr<\/a>” no longer redirects the\u00a0visitor to “nerit.gr<\/a>“, and the servers connected to the ert.gr<\/a> domains\u00a0(dns1.papaki.gr<\/a>, ns2.papaki.gr<\/a>, ns120.papaki.gr<\/a>) are now showing error\u00a0and test pages from their active servers. Just this morning, they were\u00a0all inactive! It seems that somebody is working on the servers to
\nre-establish the ERT website.<\/p>\n

It will be interesting to see what will happen!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Indeed, it will! Let us know of any updates. I’ll tune to the ERT Open relay on 9420 this evening to see if IDs have changed. Again, many thanks for the report, Ayar!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
