[NNagain] ISOC's IXP program

[michael brooks - ESC]

Caveat: pure ignorance in the process of being mitigated at work in the
comments below.

I can see this initiative helping a situation like ours. As a non-transit
peer to our ISPs, we certainly do not qualify as an IXP in the traditional
sense. But we do have a potential impact on our peers as well as a possible
impact on the community at large, thus some education would be beneficial
(education almost always is not *not* beneficial...). We do have an
opportunity as an anchor institution to become a non-traditional IXP by
fronting Internet service to downstream partners via a unique model used by
our non-traditional ISP. So, my point is if any initiative strives to
provide education, I am in support of it. Especially, it has my support if
it helps to build out Internet access for both partner institutions looking
to bolster their access, as well as potentially allowing for
underprivileged community members to gain access via unique connectivity
infrastructures.



HaPpY NeW YeaR!
