If you are in a hurry and can't wait a few hours, you can tell people to use a "jump" address helper redirection
service. This will work within a few minutes of your entering the key to an address book on the same site. Test
- it yourself first by entering http://stats.i2p/cgi-bin/jump.cgi?a=something.i2p or
- http://i2host.i2p/cgi-bin/i2hostjump?something.i2p into your browser.

Once it's working, you can tell others to use it.
