A Brief Introduction to CCIC:

This is the repository for the historic IFCSS/CCIC site on the Internet. CCIC is one of earliest sites fully dedicated to hosting contents related to China, Chinese, Chinese overseas community, Chinese activists, Chinese culture, Chinese computing, and Chinese software. Later on it became affiliated with the newly founded "Independent Federation of Chinese Students and Scholars" (IFCSS) and was operated with the support of IFCSS since then. Hence it also became official site operation for IFCSS. In fact, CCIC has been the major portal for Chinese around the world for quite some years. During the years, a group of Chinese students volunteers have helped around on its operation. Two of the pioneers later on even went back to China (with a few others) and have successfully started a company introducing and building out Internet in China. Through the years, this site has been kept on-line by the courtesy of quite a few extraordinary people who helped it to be hooked off the network at various locations such as University of Texas at Arlington's Library, New Mexico State University, Harvard University's Asian Library. CCIC was de-affiliated later with IFCSS in around 2001 and its voluteer operation team became inactivated. So now this site found its resting place with another Internet legendary pioneer -- iBiblio (formerly also known as, UNC-SunSITE, MetaLab).

Unless we get more active volunteers to carry on the torch in helping around, this site will be kept as it was before without any further updates on its content. Many info, links, email addresses and software packages contained in this site could likely be out of date or incorrect. So, netters please be warned.
