Sean is usually very careful with his choice of words but in this instance I am afraid I don't understand the use of "compromised". Also I have a question. Leaving aside the question of commercial use... I am in St Petersburg Russia now....which is why, unfortunately I will miss a Nanog meeting that is otherwise physically near me, and I will not tackle *this* issue from here, Sean in an earlier comment implied that if sprint were running a RS like the one at Mae West, it could be profitable because it would be a good easy and cheap source of peering for other ISPs. Would Sean or someone else elaborate on this? For example I didn't think it was the case that if Sprint is now using the services of the RA that being connected to the route server at MAE west would have been the same thing as having full peering with Sprint? Exactly what kind of connectivity DO you get from the use of the RS there or anywhere eles assuming that the RS is working. ********************************************************************** The COOK Report on Internet Individ. hard copy $150 431 Greenway Ave, Ewing, NJ 08618 USA Small Corp & Gov't $200 (609) 882-2572 phone and fax Corporate $350 Internet: cook@cookreport.com Corporate Site Lic. $650 http://pobox.com/cook/ for new report: "Tracking Internet Infrastructure" *********************************************************************** On Sat, 25 May 1996, Paul Ferguson wrote:
